I found the head 0,3 is bad for use Head Test

Can i Remoe head 0,3 by use [test]-[Remove head] function?

Many thanks for your

No, but depending what model it is you can maybe 'pair' the heads in RAM to replace bad head with functional head.

Other option would be to attempt HotSwap

Thanks for aj2008

I has try use [test]-[Remove head] function to repair a WD5000BEVT
I remove head 2 and Now wd5000bevt is show wd3600bevt

So If I want to repair harddisk and not to recover data

Can I remove head 0?
Because I know head 0 is important for harddisk.
