Can you dump the vendor specific VPD pages?

You can do this using sg_vpd:

https://linux.die.net/man/8/sg_vpd

This command dumps page 0, which is a list of supported VPD pages.

Code:
sudo sg_vpd --page=0 /dev/ice

The above tool is a component of the sg3_utils package:

https://sg.danny.cz/sg/sg3_utils.html

The vendor specific pages are in the range 0xC0 - 0xFF.

You can dump these pages as follows:

Code:
sudo sg_vpd --raw --page=nn /dev/ice > VPD_nn.bin

"nn" is the page number. "If a number is given it is assumed to be decimal unless it has a hexadecimal indicator which is either a leading '0x' or a trailing 'h'."

ST300MM0006 = Seagate Savvio 10K.6 300GB, SAS 6Gb/s

Have you already tried to force flashing this?: https://files.hddguru.com/download/Firm ... g-0004.zip

Older Seagates are sometimes not locked or prevent flashing generic fw.
