It is rarely PRACTICAL to repair a dead drive.
If it has important data on it, then repairing or swapping the board is
sometimes done. It is extremely rare that there would be a need
sufficient to justify opening the "bubble".
But, often, drives are identified as being dead or defective, when all
that they need is to redo the low level format.

There is no way to test them, and there are no refunds.
There are no dents or obvious signs of damage, but that means noting.
Is there any way to resurrect these if they are dead/defective?
Any interest?
