HELP on samsung HD103SI

,,i has clear G-List and Glist-50,,on SRT ..
the Drive is now frozen,, to fix now need merg G to P? how do it?



WARNING : - Clearing the A-List will make you loose all the data present on the "spare" sectors. This means that for example if during the normal use of the drive "x" sectors were considered "bad" by the drive and swapped by a spare that now have valid data when one issues the "Clear A-List" command the data on those "x" sectors will no longer be accessible !!!

If you want to recover data, never modify the P-LIST.
Adding GList to PList would be useful to repair the HDD but you would lose all the data.
If you delete GList you will lose the sectors that have been relocated.
If you lose the PLIST in principle you have lost everything.
Make a backup of the entire SA, always before starting to manipulate the SA.

If I am wrong in something please rectify. Thank you.

And in SAMSUNG what are the lists RList, VList and SList?
And where is the list of sectors pending to be reassigned?

in WD i know tha need G to P but samsung i no know

I used WDR Demo. You need to right-click your mouse to open the options menu.
Go to Actions -> Super Format -> Merge G to P
Just wait for a success or error message in the log.
After this do Actions -> Super Format -> ReMerge G to P
clear smart ...

it is correct?

I just backup the modules, Should i write to drive so will realocate?
lose all the data: mean lose sectors to remap? or lose docs, pics, etc..?


mhp666 wrote:You loose access to re-mapped sectors and you will be re-directed to original Bad sector for each entre you delete on G-List.


it means i deleted G-List? maybe remap again on some script mhdd? or is all lose?
Adding GList to PList without and with Terminal, means the drive no will be able again to remap?
i never should do it then?

i has made it on all my WD and reallity bad sector is increasing ...

Otherwise why to go to the trouble of all of this ?

http://www.hddoracle.com/viewtopic.php?t=2617#p19342

He would just buy a donor and use it instead of buying it and kill it moving head(s)/platters, etc ....

By the look of things i would say he wants the data.



HELLO

if HD is lost with G-List cleaned, I can use the PCB for the donor to another drive?
and the body can be used as a patient to other drives?
or just the head(s)/platters can be used?

You can use the platters to put coffee cup on. Or to scare birds from plants. Oh, make sure power is turned off before placing coffee cup.
