does it eventually show DSC and DRD after the terminal has stopped spamming these addresses?

Aj Sir ,
i am of the opinion there is a need to remove reallocations in SMP sys file in this current drive .I also feel there is need to work on media cache in this particular drive case .We in india are still not having higher capacity drives coming .But in states and canada and many parts of europe its very common

PS : Niceday once you get SATA Reset message you should restart the seagate utility and might be you get detection and sector access .

this would require access via terminal which seems to not be granted based on the initial post.

Assuming that you know crawford is possible to unlock,I am sure he should try this out if he has latest tool software and then try the suggestions i pointed out .In what version were you able to unlock crawfords AJ Sir

Thanks for your response. Yes it show DSC and DRD after these adresses. I get accesss via terminal but Port is still locked.
When I get get SATA Reset message I restart the seagate utility but can“t get detection and sector access .

It may be possible that it will recover data on DSC DRD registers, slowly but I see some cases that behave this way. Version I have is 6.3.14, I did not update to 6.4 yet.

Hello,

Can you read/write ROM on this drive?
What reading rate do you use?
