disc drive renesas question
has there been any way discovered to marry a new renesas to the ps4 so the disc drive will work? mine may be toast because a pin broke off when i removed it to swap it to a replacement daughter board. i hope it can be fixed because the motherboard works and just needs a hard drive

@techlord let's see the damage. Post Some good pictures of what this all looks like, with your Question. Maybe we can all come up with some ideas. Adding images to an existing question

@techlord could just be the flux etc. but it looks like plenty of solder bridges on your contacts. Consider cleaning it and check for solder bridges. Looks like there maybe a little edge left. Got some excellent soldering skills and good tools?

I agree with oldturkey. Looks like some connections are bridged. Make sure none of them are bridged.
