WD5000BEVT-60ZAT1 ROM needed

Postby SGdata » 14.01.17, 10:24

Hi, does anyone have ROM for this drive and could post it?

I have this drive, source unknown, just bought it to practice. It does show ready but no ID etc. Heads are ok, didnt' ID with RAM head edit. Last thing i did was to load ROM and modules from SA and upload them. Funny thing: drive shows up with ID from WD1600BEVT-60ZAT1.
So i thought that uploading a proper ROM would fix it.

I doubt the ROM is the issue (at least it wasn't when you started), and a foreign ROM isn't going to "fix" anything. It'll just make the situation worse.

(I'm glad to hear you are practicing before doing these things on an actual case)

If you're new to PC-3000 and need some pointers I'll be happy to give you a few moments and get you started. Just PM me.
