Question: The sata connectors on one of my hard drives has got bent so I swapped the PCB from an identical board without knowing there was more to do than that.

Now when I put the pcb back on the original drive it doesn’t show up in disk management.

Any ideas how I can fix this?

Thanks

Answer:It sounds like the drive has an internal problem. I think the new fault is just a coincidence, unrelated to anything you’ve done.
