Working on a st2000dm001-1ch164 (hp33).

I know these things are complete garbage so I'm not super hopeful.

Anyway, using Ubuntu Linux. If i watch in Dmesg it will ComReset a few times then detect as sdc as well as detecting partitions sdc1,sdc2, etc. So it is reading the partition table, thus i believe reading ROM and SA.

As soon as i begin to copy it with DDrescue it will show a bunch i/o errors and then shows an i/o error for every sector it attempts to read, thus the output disk remains empty.

Have tried reading backwards to see if its something early tripping it up, no luck.

Have not plugged in UART yet, but intend to.

Cannot read smart either

My understanding is there tends to be firmware issues with these as well as frequent head failures.

Any thoughts on what i am looking at here?

Was randomly able to get a SMART reading.

Many read errors

Was also able to copy the first 1MB before the i/o errors. Seems to be the primary GPT table.
