Hi @ all,

Techno On............................... : Device Error Detected 51/04 (ABR)

Zone table.............................. : Zone table read error; Transmission data stop CMD error; Device Error Detected 51/04 (ABR)

G-List reading error.................... : G-List read error; Transmission data stop CMD error; Device Error Detected 51/04 (ABR)

What can i do? I can't write a new copy of the rom because it will send me only ABR Error...

Thanks and best wishes

Super ON is rejected so you can't do a thing with the drive.

Either it's "locked" with some sort of special firmware that does reject the standard SUPER ON or the PCB is damaged ...

Does the drive spin up at all ? Can't you access a single LBA ? Does the drive ID at least ?
