It feels so good to have your support 🥂 Thx so much, Alex❤
PCBWay rocks. Do you guys have access to Copper 63 for product printing?
@@WarblyWark For metal printing, we now support aluminum, stainless steel, titanium, and tool steel. Copper is not available.
Insane repair, the fact that you pulled the right capacitor right away is incredible, you make your job look like magic
Alex, even with all your experience, it's a joy to see the delight you have when you make a fix.
I'm in the computer repair business at 10 years, and this channel is the best professional to follow for sure, great job👌💪
Isn't it more professional to replace damaged components instead of just removing them?
@@KaloyanDobrevNo. He did the job in the most efficient manner, producing the desired result for his customer. The data will be retrieved and the drive replaced. Welcome to real life, kid.
Alex the surgeon does it again. that magic smile at the end is priceless.
nicely done. might have looked easy but your skill and knowledge is what makes it easy. customer will be pleased
Congrats on the sponsor Alex and team. I’ve worked with PCBWay on many occasions, and everything has just been easy ☺️
Cheeerssss🥂🥂🥂
That circuit was most like a power regulator. That capacitor was probably a decoupling capacitor for filtering. Great video as always, Alex!
So it has more noise now which can lead to redused speed of the drive
@@KaloyanDobrev the data will be recovered and the drive disposed of. That is of no concern.
And they said repairs like this won't be possible one day. This is a forgotten skill.
Well they won't be once they decide to pot the entire board in epoxy. You can only repair what you can access. Things are becoming consolidated. First into chips then eventually into sealed modules. Game over.
It is already... You cant fix your cpu, while burned only 1 transistor inside, its sooo tiny :(
Its not forgotten or impossible (and wont be), just not economical.
More like with how often right to repair gets defeated it will eventually just be illegal to repair your property.
@@MageLeaderInc really? its already like that. If you repair your property without any "certificate" and it got broken, your house "jump to 9th dimension" (Like say Alex 😀), no insurrance will pay you a dime.
Nice fix. I'm surprised the files were not encrypted considering it belongs to a government entity.
Thanks for the video Alex. 👋 to Pops and Big Boss.
Most gov data is unencrypted, most tech people tend to want nothing to do with government.
Makes sense, the pay is terrible, and the people are corrupt.
Great job! As a hobbyist and student, I'm eager to learn about the potential consequences of removing this cap instead of replacing it.
We're two capacitors, one left on the pcb
This is called Pride and self respect.
To many of these content creators sell thier souls for a few dollars offering up thier fan bases to basicly predators.
You are a rare breed muh man and have served as a incredible mentor for me. I truely hope one day I can repay you and thank you in person for doing what you do for us all.
Your diagnostic skills never cease to amaze me!
I'm never surprised you fix things so quickly - smart man
great work! 🎉 I think it’s important not to plug in random drives into your computer even from people you know or maybe get a different computer specifically for plugging in a drive.
You are a ROCKSTAR - such a great demo of how powerful basic troubleshooting can be (literally) in the hands of a pro!
I have done similar repairs since the days of tubes and really enjoy the thrill of reviving dead gear with only basic info. And it's almost always the cheap power supply!! :-)
I used to be one of two guys who could keep a certain piece of German robotics running in a challenging install. Fun, frustrating and a joy to work with. No one else would touch it!
Bravo and thanks for sharing your passion and skill with all of us 🙏
This is the craziness repair video I've ever seen! Amazing. I have four Samsung EVO drives that died on clients that I might have to take apart now!
I love it when you do repairs with the low tech "Does the Alcohol boil" approach... Another quality job done!.... You make it look easy! The sign of a true craftsman....
It always feels great when you work on something to figure out why is not working and you find the problem straight off. Great Job Alex!!! Thank for another great video. Hello to Big Boss the Boss of all Bosses!!!
I literally have this same hard drive and it also failed completely. Would not even be recognized by any device. I sent it in to Drive Savers and they couldn't recover data... I've now sent it to a guy in the UK who will at least try to repair the board, so I'm hoping he's as successful as you were here. I'm almost 100% certain it's also a failed component like this. I think the drive overheated and something burned out and failed. Only downside is it's going to take months for the guy to actually look at it and that's not even a guarantee he will fix it.
You are a life saver here for sure.
Should have sent it to that guy over in Wyoming. Too late now. He won't touch it after two shops have molested it.
Always impressed with your knowledge and appreciation for explaining these things. I’m a hobbyists in electronics, and love learning from you. Keep up the good work
PCBWay customer experience is second to none. Good sponsor !!!!!!!
Alex, everyone in this channel is watching videos for free and also learning for free , so no one has a right to complain about ads, i am ready to watch one minute ads even though i am not in the field , to be honest, thank you for the help alex
Using alcohol to zero in on the area of the short is brilliant, thanks for the tip.
Many of us can't afford a thermal imaging camera, this is a handy option to use in a pinch.
PCBWay is the logical choice, their ads are nicely done and on point for your channel.
Nice job on the speedy fix!
Nicely done. I'm guessing the two caps in parallel are a safe guard for voltage spikes and if so, would you not replace it anyway..?
I love the smile you have after successfully completing the job! Best wishes brother!
Nice job 😀😀 That's the kind of repair we wish for everyday 😃😃
Excellent and reliable work as always! 😄👍
I`m new on the channel, and i`m very glad i found you. Amazing repairs! Most of the technicians will replace the drive and no one will dig on the problem!
Wow! That was remarkable! Talk about the luck of the Irish, and you're not even Irish! What a satisfying feeling to hit the fix within seconds. Well done! Bravo! Freedom of the county for you!
Awesome repair. Don't you wish it would be that easy every time. 👍
the caps did it, and again ! good job 👍
Great work Alex, in is times like these that make it all worth while!
The way you handle the advertisments got me subscribed(++ the repairs are magical). Keep up the good work !!
What a repair! The skill is 2nd to non absolute class.
To do this in just two minutes he spent decades learning and practicing... No discount sorry customers ❤... the main skill is customer dealing how you put yourself in a situation where they know you are the right guy for the job... I love this channel
The customer (and you) got lucky on this one. So glad you took a chance and tried to see what happens. Hope you charge a good sum for this one, since you saved their data! ;)
You do know your stuff Alex. I would love to learn a fraction of your knowledge, keep up the great work.
One word only WOW! will definitely try out pcb way for my motor control PCB I recently designed
Man that's incredible that first cap you pulled was the issue, great stuff man!
Hi i am from India and I am always enjoy and learn chip leval repair in electronics from you sir, love you your team uncle, your sister,wife, and you also always...
You are my teacher ❤️
Nice to see you get lucky for a change!
Wow this is amazing from a consumers point of view. Was told SSD,s were not repairable. Very educational thanks
Amazing job as always and this what makes me watch more of your educational videos
Absolutely astounding Alex absolutely astonished... Great video...
Enjoy the easy fix - you deserve it !
There was no need to replace that Capacitor?
Testing the bad cap is good practice and full confirmation.
splendid job as usual....wish i could learn some more of this.
Is it luck or an expert at work? Nice work as always, Alex. Nice to see you smile when it finally works. Love all your videos.
lol i love to see that big cheezy grin when you remove the faulty component first try :D
and you called it too! your optimism and skill is admirable.
A huge amount of knowleedge and a litlle bit of luck.. But to see the happyness on you face when you saw the result... PRICELESS! , I know the feeling.
alex you are like a sniper in the war, one single bullet and its kill the enemy right away. good jobs greeting from indonesia.
Awesome repair !
The one Million Dollar Shot ✌🏻
Alex is the best electronics repair person on the planet. You can't tell me otherwise. If he can't fix it, it's a paperweight.
Very well done!!
Excellent work. Great luck. Maybe pick my next lottery numbers!
Thx to show us everything how to fix electronics ❤
It's a lost art but you Sir are a master!
You gave me a big smile on my face !
lucky Guessing today, Awesome job sir.
Your hands for repair ts too good.
Thanks sir
10/10 👏
Sometimes it's better to be lucky than good.
I love pcbway I tried them out years ago from another sponsored stream for some prototype pcb's amazing quality
I like your way of working simple basics techniques observations &no rocket science making every repair too easy
I learnt soo many things from watching yours videos
Tons of love & respect to your work from a small town of india
Awesome! Never say never! Great job. Keep it up!
Nice work!
Alex should have a little boss he can teach his knowledge because he can really be a good teacher!
Excellent job.
Good method. Good find. Good video.
Good diagnosis, your lucky day.
I’m also get a motivation after seen your videos, weldone ❤
Wow, another fab job
Superb job Bro 😎
Great video as always, I have a question though. So you simply don't replace the bad cap? Is it a situation of redundancy where there's multiple caps of the same value on the board doing the exact same job? Also, how do you go about finding the value of a shorted cap?
Am curious about that too. Great minds think alike. 🙂
Perhaps it was more about data recovery than repair. Now LA Metro can get the data off the drive, so that was enough? Then they’ll bin the drive.
If not just intended for data recovery, but for reuse then the capacitor should be replaced and probably also the IC as those sorts of temperatures can quickly degrade them. The cap looked to be in parallel with another, this is common practice in many products and allows you to have double the capacitance without the expense or size of just one cap. Also, a form of redundancy (but not by design), one capacitor is better than none, especially on power rails. In this instance the two large capacitors are likely the same value so you would just measure the good one. Failing that you would either measure one from a donor board or take an educated guess, typically 10uF on power rails.
PCBWay really is excellent :)
Superman saves the day !
What a smile
Absolutely amazing
Alex going for a KOBE!!!
Great work
Right on - I like the idea on ads. The read could be a little slower but honestly I just care about quality and no "junk" bs ads - nice
You need to sponser so much because u are the best
Nice Job!
Very very professional
Nice job finding the cap. Next, start selling a backup solution for LA Metro - sheesh!
After finding that cap, you should have gone and immediately purchased a lottery ticket! 😆
Awesome Alex!
don't be suprised You ARE A PRO.
It's amazing from the first iteration you found it. This can be called LA metor Karamat
How can you tell if the component was a capacitor or an inductor while on board?
If you want to replace the faulty capacitor, is there a way to know its value ?
Thank you for the amazing video
Good work
Wow what a repair! I thought for sure that other chip would be fried!
Good work. As a technician we always expect the worst lol
Brilliant!
Do you have to replace that cap?
Good job 👍👌🥇
you're a professional 🎉
That was a fast fix .😮
Impressive!!!!!
