I'm afraid the answer to that question is very complex and will vary from case to case. In cases where, as you say, the drive's just seem to work in PC3K but not normally connected to a computer, there probably is no actual "repair" happening. It's more likely that the drive is just unstable at the normal read timeouts an OS such as Windows uses. Because PC3K more carefully regulates this and can detect a drive that gets stuck busy or loses readiness, it's able to reset the drive and keep it reading.
