I am trying to replace a 2 diodes from a HDD that went bad. I cannot figure out the part number to replace them with. They are on the 5v line of the HDD board. Can anyone help me figure this out? I think the big one is a TVS diode.

Re: Trouble finding diode part number
Is the device on the LEFT connected to the power pins? it looks like fuse.
The 4 devices all connected in parallel on the right: two MLCC, and two devices with band on top one may be Tantalum cap and another one may be diode for reverse polarity protection.Never stop learning

Re: Trouble finding diode part number
The little one could very well be a fuse. On the left side of the component the trace goes right to the 5v pin which connects to the power supply for the HDD. I'm pretty sure the diode on the left is a TVs diode which is usually for circuit protection. That's why if you remove it the HDD will still boot up but just not have any circuit protection there. When they go bad they usually short.
