Doesn't MRT allow you to clone individual heads?
MRT has kill zone and and kill head for toshiba. I tried kill head. 2 head. 1 cut head 0. Capacity turned % 50. But I cannot find how to mount again head 0 . Lol.
I think MRT DE also has select head option. I see But I don't know how to do yet. I am just learning recovery and also MRT . I am training by myself. I have lots of HDD to make practise . Other brand HDD's head options are so easy on MRT . But not tried yet
This is NOT for data recovery. This is for drive repair.
For data recovery you do need to do head map in DE.
If you cut heads on the utility or if you cut zones you then can re-format the drive for re-use with less capacity but NEVER for data recovery !!!!
You shouldn't cut heads or zones on a drive that you do need the data from ...
Totally true info.. I do understand after some experience. Cut zone and kill head changes . LBA changing. So users data adress mixing.
