seagate recover translator questions
Posted: 08.02.12, 03:05
I have a seagate which I am having trouble getting translator recovery
working
I dont understand the directions on the website viewtopic.php?f=34&t=7316
the drive has has sectors starting at 48e
They were flaky up to about 1200
The instructions say to read sectors around the defect.
The good secotrs before 1166 are all zeros - because the data is all zeros.
It says ambiguity and ended with lba 1173
Here are my tests around the area.
This shows the 3 types of reads : Normal, utility-no-errors and utility-yes-errors
D means I got Data no error
X means I got read error
0 means I get all zeros
? means I got mostly zeros - these change randomly sometimes they read ll zeros, sometimes they get different patterns of mom-zeros.
So whats going on? How do I fix this ?

working
I dont understand the directions on the website viewtopic.php?f=34&t=7316
the drive has has sectors starting at 48e
They were flaky up to about 1200
The instructions say to read sectors around the defect.
The good secotrs before 1166 are all zeros - because the data is all zeros.
It says ambiguity and ended with lba 1173
Here are my tests around the area.
This shows the 3 types of reads : Normal, utility-no-errors and utility-yes-errors
D means I got Data no error
X means I got read error
0 means I get all zeros
? means I got mostly zeros - these change randomly sometimes they read ll zeros, sometimes they get different patterns of mom-zeros.
So whats going on? How do I fix this ?
