Micro USB damaged, any replacement or fix?
I have 1TB 2.5 external HD from WD elements. the micro USB port has been damaged, hence the HD is not getting detected properly in my pc or laptop. All my data is in the HD.
P/N : WDBABV0010BBK-00
Is it possible to connect this HD with anyother port. I see only the micro usb port. am not sure about other port. attached the screen shot my HD for better understanding of the internal design of HD.
if anyone can help to extract data by any means it will be helpfull.
Thanks.

Hi Jagan,
Did you every manage to fix your drive?
I too have a WDBABV0010BBK-00 with the micro USB connector. Mine recently wigged out, (I accidentally dropped it)
I opened it up hoping to find a standard SATA connection, but only found the 12-pin connection. Were you able to connect it via the 12-pin?
I looked at your pics, and I have exactly the same drive as you. (I bought it on black Friday when target was selling it for super cheap)
I want to get my data back, the guys at best buy wants to charge $250, just to send it off to "hopefully" get it recovered.
Any insight is greatly appreciated. I'm not super tech savvy, so the link which requires the removal of the 12 pin is way beyond my skill level.
Thanks
