For entire week we are struggling with one refurbished seagate Pharoh family disk (7200.12 /320gb)
It gets detected normally with different model /sn/fw no. and tends to be busy all the time (refurbed model name).
Translator recovery is not been able to possible despite all efforts.
Can someone pls.guide , I can give remote access to UDMA-E , refurbed drives are not fully supported by utility.

Here is a similar case:

IMHO you have no diagnostic overlays on it. Or they are not compatible with ROM. You need to change the firmware version to the stock one on it and fill in the necessary overlays. This, of course, if the writing heads is alive.

WO you are great E123 :good: , I just wrote your rom and now can read SA like normal hard disk. I have got full sector access & getting good imaging speed (heads are ok). But fight is not over yet , I am not able to read MFT's of any partition and getting read errors.
Further work on defect list / translator might be needed.
Thanks a ton for all the help. I will be in touch with you on PM. :D
