WD40EFRX rom corruption ?

Postby Miodrag » 12.03.18, 13:59

The drive spin normal and after 30 sec give ready status. Can't load anything except the family and according to the log file look like some kind of rom corruption. I read the native rom (zip file in attach) and I didn't notice the corruption in file. Can somebody look at the rom file and give me a clue what happened with a drive, or If someone has an adequate firmware, it would be nice to try with that option to.

Hello,

Looks like it's Giant family drive. Isn't it?
What a firmware version of your patient drive?

Your ROM is looking good, FW version is 00010081.
Find donor resources and write 20B ROM module into the patient drive.

The case is finished successfully with the help of TS and digitalsupport who provided the right fw resources for repairing corrupted module 20B. After repairing module 20B, the drive load normal and clone 100 % :thumbup:
