Displaced as in bent, or missing?  If bent try very carefully to bend it back.  If missing, you'll have to try soldering on another one in its place.  If that data is extremely crucial I'd take it to an expert to recover the data, but it may cost in the thousands.  Otherwise good luck fixing it.

/blink.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':blink:\' />  Uh-oh, since that pin cannot be returned to its normal length, i suggest to call either drivesavers, if you really want to save some files from that hdd, & replace your hdd. Coz if ull still opt for that hdd, it might just cause problems in the future.
