just wondering for which reason, in DE task, cloning a charger SMR drive, sometimes disapear the [ HEAD-0 (1,2,3) etc] text after LBA text.
also, another thing, is that the sectors without HEAD number have all ZEROs inside.

please check pictures...

That's because when you create head map, the drive creates it based on the occupied sectors. That means that empty sectors are not mapped, simply because they are zeroed.
