Hi everyone!

I've been searching the internet everywhere for an older (used) version of the
KingSpec PATA KSD-PA25.6-064MS drive.
My drive was bought in april 2012, so I need a drive from around this time period.

The short version of this history is that my drive has failed, and is now with a recovery-company. The drives controller has failed, and we need a donor drive with a controller that was programmed the exact same way at the date of manufacture.
These drives came with a few modifications over the years. My drives enclosure says it's a KSD-PA25.6-064MS drive, but I'm a bit unsure if the drive actually is a KSD-PA25.1-064MS.

If you look at the picture, the failed drive is the one in the middle. The other two are the same model, but a different revision.

I offer to trade your drive with a newer version of this drive which I now got two of, or I can pay you for the drive. It's up to you.

Please, please help me out here if anyone of you got a similar drive as the one in the middle. You have to unscrew four screws to be able to see the circuitboard inside the SSD, that's all. If the board is blue, there is a real chance it's a match!
