good luck

Like Starling said in another post....

It does work!

It does work for sabre not calypso

It does, I just tried it with a 6Y160M0

msn me for details

I could not get it working, i did set jumper as shown by Starling but the motor still spins.

Hmm, that's strange. I just tried it again. Works fine.

Electronic "noise" comes from the PCB, but motor does not start, for me.

Load loader (takes up to 1 minute), then motor starts and all OK.

Check the pins again, I see your pic is upside down from Starlings drawing.

i have tried replacing the sata pcb with ide pcb both having same processor chip works good for me .

Hi Mates,
You people have so many Maxtors in your country.We Poor Mortals Have Very Very Less Maxtors .

@Real_jose_pinto...can you give me diagram for calypso diamondmax 9 IDE safe mode? or point me to someplace i can find it. thanks in advance.
