Hi All,

Perhaps someone has seen this before and may be able to help. It feels like a head gone, but i am unable to gain access to the ROM to alter the head map.. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Oh, and i receive this error when attempting to read out the ROM...

Are you sure you selected 32 Bit Caviar for this model? Also, can you read ROM in Kernel mode? What does ID show when you connect it to utility?

Looks like some of the service information can be read, so maybe all heads are not bad. Maybe PCB could be bad too, Does the disk knock when powered?

Hi,

I now have access to the ROM on the drive to alter the head map.

The head map is a bit strange see picture.. But anyway, at least now i can alter it. Turning off Head 0 allowed the drive to come ready nicely and behave in the utility, however it will not read ANY SA data.

Disabling head 1 results in the drive knocking.

With all Heads left on (except head 2), the drive becomes ready eventually, then hangs when the utility is started and will not read the rom. See below logs (And yes all heads as per picture were activated in kernal mode, but the logs shows only the 0 Head.) Any ideas?

I would say check your IDE cable and perhaps replace the drive PCB
