Bad SA modules on Maxtor Fireball 3

March 12th, 2005, 23:00

I have a Maxtor fireball 3 that cannot be detected in bios. The problems are :
- All modules in SA cannot be read except PN #05 and #4E.
- I tried to rewrite the modules with modules from good hdd and it gave an error.
- I tried to rewrite the modules group (DATA, OVL, ...) also error.
- Min cyl: 0, max cyl : -1.
- Modules repairing -> error.

Any suggestion ? Has anyone tried to recover this type of malfunction ?

Thanks.
