Please see this thread:
wd1600aajs-00l7a0-03e01-needed-many-bad-modules-t16597.htmlIt is not a standard case of one or two bad modules, that I have handled before with auto repair. In this case Atola recommended further diagnosis.
Here are some points that it would be great to see Dmitry's opinion on:
1. I see the modules are copied, but are these copy 0 or 1? I only see one copy. It would be ideal to have two.
2. Is it possible to read the SA ignoring errors?
3. Can the entire tracks be saved?
Now some points and requests
As you may imagine ACE (and I guess SD) save modules are compatible with Atola modules. The format is just different. (modxxxx.mod in ace versus xxxx.m or xxxx.m~ for non readable modules in Atola). Why not incorporate a "compare and import" function whilst writing mods back via atola
After all, the biggest repositories and private stocks of good FW is in the ACE format.
Please other users chip in here with more Atola FW needs, I know that they are going to push this part of the product forward soon so there is a good chance our wishes will be heard.
For discussion purposes I have attached a full dump from a FW defective Drive done by Atola. Compare that to the dumps of your ACE and SD products.
Cheers..
