RZTBL a serious problem for DR. Actually this can be fixed with translator regen ( s/w or H/w ) But I hope u save ALL track before do any modification..

[Bruno]

Dear Steven

I'm make translator regen SW and after no access to HD translator regen HW.
The translator regen end successful, boot time, but i have only access to sector "0" and "63" . Now i write all modules (from first save) back to the surface. All modules could be written succesfull.
I think a module is not ok, because the user disconnect the plug from wall, without logout the LACIE hd, but witch module could be defekt?.
In DE i could be read the first sector and sect.63 ok (green). i take a test red with read ignore CRC. Now sect 2 is black, the next 15 are grey, next black and so on. 63 is green.
Is there a way to get the te data??
Thanks for help.

Hello,

It is hard to help you remotely, but i can recover any (original) maxtor in any case if recoverable at all.
For this case, i am sure, i can do it for you, if you interested.
