Hi guys,

I've this WD10JMVW that giving me . It initialized correctly/ fully, HDD ID is correct and SA is accessible but data area is not accessible.

Head test shows Head# 1 is giving problem. Followed through http://blog.acelab.eu.com/ram-head- ... -case.html guideline, changed head map in RAM to 0 0 2 3 without avail.

Tried it in DDI 4 imager, skipped Head# 1 and it shows Read Timeout for all sectors. Matter of fact, it shows Read Timeout no matter which head we skipped.

Please advise.

Hi guys,

We found the problem root cause, it is not the "FMT ERR FLIST WRT FAIL" that stopped us from accessing sector but rather the SED locked issue. Followed through http://blog.acelab.eu.com/pc-3000-h ... rives.html and had it decrypted.. imaging the drive without Head# 1 now.

It is the hard drive family ~ FBlite, that remind me of SED locked issue, which PC3k didn't indicate it.
