Can I replace Ethernet PCB on this External HD?

I have a Western Digital MyBook external hard drive that recently quit connecting. This is a NAS device, so direct connection to the hard drive does not work, however, the HD itself is still working and files are intact. The problem is that the Western Digital drives are encrypted, so the only way I can see to recover my data from the hard drive is to find a new PCB with the same numbers and connect it to the hard drive so it can connect to the network and transfer the files.

I have the same problem. Yesterday I was able to access it with the WD Discovery utility Software. I was able to “Browse Network Shares” and display the shared folder on Windows Explorer that proof it was still accesible. Today I tried the same thing, but had no more access to it.
