    I am looking for someone who can provide me with the exact same hard drive that came with this system. Mine got some water damage to the PCB which burned out so I am looking to replace it.

    Here are some more details:

    SEC-HM320JI(B)
    Build: 09.2009
    FW: 2SS00_03

    And on the PCB:

    PW REV.3

    Anyone, feel free to quote me and I might just buy it off you.

    You don't need to use the exact drive that came with the machine... you can use any 2.5", 9.5mm SATA hard drive...

    Hi Commander Wolf, thanks for the tip but since i got some water spillage to the PCB, I would like to have this part replaced. For that I would need a PCB with the exact same firmware. Is this correct?
