GENERAL TX Replacement PCB SATA Connection

[Rowan]

Hi,

First off sorry if this is in the wrong section, I looked through the Xecuter Support but didnt see one for this product.

Basically when I was flashing my drive today the SATA Connection on the replacement PCB broke (the plastic part).

I managed to push it back into the SATA cable in the xbox and get it working but I dont know how long it will last.

Does anyone know how I can fix this? Should I send it back to ModTraders? Should I unsolder/resolder the SATA from my old pcb from the liteon drive?

All help appreciated,

Thanks

if you did not over force it get on to ModTraders and explain im sure it will be sorted out other wise you will need to get a new one remove the old one and solder it on or get someone to do it.

Thanks for the reply,

I dont want to send it back even though I didnt force it as they are in short supply and it will be hard to get another.

Is it definetly ok to just de-solder the SATA connector from the old Liteon PCB and solder it onto the TX PCB, its just the same thing yeh?

Im not great at soldering, dont even have that much experience, but it seems to just be a couple of tiny points so will it require a pro?

It is a few mins straight forward soldering job for someone that knows how to solder if you don't no how then don't do it send it to someone who can buddy it wont cost much.
