I have to recover the data from an old hard drive, a Western Digital 160GB WD1600AAJS-00WAA0.

The problem is, when I tried to go to a professional data recovery center, they wanted to charge me 100Euro for the data recovery and 200EURO for another identical hdd which they need to take some parts from. I found the 200EURO for a 9 year old 160gb to be a bit much, so I'm trying to
find a cheaper solution. I couldn't find any in my country, but I found the next best thing on ebay
My question is, is this HDD "identical" to take parts from? http://www.ebay.com/itm/160GB-Western-Digital-WD1600AAJS-00WAA0-DCM-HBNNHTJCH-3-5-SATA-Hard-Disk-Drive-/222450473665?epid=650657620&hash=item33cb14dac1:g:59oAAOSwDKtY1TRv
From what I see MDL is the same, the only differences are
S/N
DATE
DCM
WWN
and the fact that one is Malaysia and one is Thailand
