New family of M11 drives?

[Paradog84]

Has anyone come across any of these newer M11 Seagates?

Fam ID................... : 0xCF, (Fam_CF)
Fam Member............... : 0x1
SN....................... : WCJ5LPCX
Servo FW rev code........ : 0xB1BF
Max head................. : 9
Seek mode................ : 2000
Flags.................... : 0A09
Head vendor.............. : default
RRO mode................. : 0005
Preamp type.............. : 0000
Heads polarity........... : 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
Logical head map......... : 00 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09
Phys head maps........... : 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00

ROM is unreadable via terminal - we had to remove it a manually dump in external programmer (2Mb)
Tech Unlock patch results in LED:0x000000BB FAddr:0x00004300 instantly from power on (drive does spin but never becomes ready)

Loading the ROM into Seagate Utility - we are able to modify the Logical Head map, import adaptives etc, but not Tech patch

That would be M15 family

Thank you for confirming...

I'm looking at one of these drives now, we have a working drive (potential donor) to play with, but not looking good so far (tech patch unsuccessful)

These drives are locked on the Boot ROM level (that's why you can't read/write the flash through the terminal) and old patch won't work

I see - thanks again Doomer for the info
