harddrive from old macbook has 2.5 volt on pin 11.
I have an old SATA hard drive from a macbook. The hard drive stopt working and I just wanted to have a look on the pcb. I can't find any fault in the small components but I cant find any datasheet on the IC's and so I don't know what I can expect. What I found odd was that pin 11 has 2.5 volts, and it's not ground as most pictures claim it to be. Does anyone know anything more about the 2.5 volts. it's a HGST harddrive AT 7 mm 2,5 inch. HDD: Z5K500-500. If I'm posing a stupid question, I'm sorry but I'm rather new in the electronics hobby. I'm looking for a new AT 7mm model but I can't find any below 1T and that's just a bit too expensive to me.
Would the device accept a new SSD drive. I'm not really sure if Mac has any specifications on materials they use.
