I Have the following HDD

Firrmware : JPFOA3GH
Capacity : 298.09 GB (625 142 448)
The HDD is identified perfectly and able to save modules. In DE lot of secors are not being copied.
On "HDD Translator Initialisation in RAM", following message comes:

What is this message
Address of translator activation flag is not found!
Even after this lot of sectors are black and not copied.
Any suggestion/solution will be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Try loading PSHT and RDMT from file, rather than straight from SA.

Hi, Thanks for the reply.
I have done from file also but same result.
I am getting the following message.

Can someone help.

Once you loaded PSHT AND RDMT to RAM, can you see full ID? Also, can you read sectors with 'Read via utility' option?
