WD20EZRX fried electronics

Yesterday my «WD 2tb green» hdd crashed and burned.

About 20 years ago i had a failing hdd which I managed to save its data by acquiring an identical drive and using its electronic controller card on the old drive.

  • Would/could this work for my WD20EZRX a well?

  • this model seems hard to find. Any suggestion on how to find it, or if any other model would do?
    I see a model with similar model name, wd20ezrz I believe, for sale (new) still…
