Hi,
I have this hdd (label says U series 7, model: ST360012A), started normally in terminal (with no error messages), having only 28 entries in G-list. Started SS from N2 and I get this:

Drive hangs here.
Tried to load saved fw to drive but it hung in the middle of the process. Now it starts with preamp error message.
SD tool has a fix called P Repair, pc3k has a fix called fix_preamp_bias_bug some guys telling about hot swapping.
Bad luck, I don't own any of these tools, and haven't got an identical drive either. Can I fix it with some free tools? Thanks for any comments in advance.

Hi,
Thanks for your input but I have checked some of my SS logs, and lots of them miss some steps and finish at age 50. So I think the problem lies elsewhere. Nevertheless I would like to know what that SeaDex script is? Why is it not there - and if it is really important - how to load it to the buffer?
