    Crucial X8 2TB Portable SSD External Hard drive

    Hi, everyone.
    I'm trying to fix this portable external SSD.
    It suddenly stopped working, according to the customer.
    After diagnosing it, I found this IC in the picture shorted on pin 5.
    It's a High Voltage Boost Converter (PS6117-40).
    I can't find any datasheet for this specific IC.
    I found a similar one, TPS61175-Q1, but the pins don't match.
    Can you guys help me find where I can buy it?

    **Need Help Unlocking BIOS and Hard Drive on Dell Precision 5820 Tower**
    by federalhouse
    Hi everyone,

    I'm in need of assistance with a Dell Precision 5820 Tower. The BIOS is locked with "Dell Security Manager," preventing access to the HDD-1 hard drive.


    **Background:**

    I recently purchased this Dell Precision 5820 Tower from a recycler who salvages equipment from abandoned office spaces. The computer was left behind by its previous owner and was password locked. Given that it can run Windows 11, I saw this as an opportunity to upgrade my setup.


    **What I've Tried So Far:**

    by sam_sam_sam
    I going to modify the enclosure to except the new USB 3 interface
    The 3.5 enclosure do not have internal switching power supplies and use a small switching wall wart power supply really

    I need a cd rom drive for my new computer and do not want to use a 2.5 cd rom drives

    The switching power supply in the old enclosure has nice heat sinks and has a cooling fan in the enclosure that is the main reason why I want to repurpose for this project

    bug of the month: write caching setting for the hard drive in device manager
    by ChaosLegionnaire
    i recently bought a new wd re4 2tb with 2014 datecodes. when i got around to testing it tho in victoria hd tester, the write speed was very slow at 14 mb/s with a 256 sector transfer size. when i increased the transfer size to 1024 sectors, the write speed increased slightly to 44 mb/s. read speeds and sector verify speeds were fine and at normal speeds.

    so i just ass-u-med the drive's poor performance was due to it being an advanced format drive and i was using it on winxp. when i tried cloning my system disk to this wd re4 2tb drive and writing to it in linux, the write speed...

    Repairing a Seagate hard drive with damaged logic board
    by karto95
    Hello everyone,

    I'm currently facing an issue with my Seagate hard drive that has a damaged logic board. I've obtained a replacement logic board from a donor hard drive, but unfortunately, I'm unable to recover the BIOS of the original board due to damaged firmware. I'm wondering if it's possible to make the hard drive work with this donor logic board.

    I have a CH341A programmer, so I'm hoping that it can be useful in this situation. I've attached the BIOS file .bin of the donor board for reference.

    If anyone has any suggestions or experience with this...
