Post subject:  Soft ver error. Looking for a solution

Hi gurus!
Tinkering with these tools I just stumbled upon this error from time to time, and lately I figured that it happens because of the updates. Once you update your Sw you can work with it but you cannot get back to work with a previous version if you require it. It is much bothering and an additional limitation though, and happened to me mainly with two doctors: Seagate and Hitachi.
Any idea for fixing this particular issue? ;)
Thanks for your help

This is the point spildit :)
For some drives older versions fits better, it is not a rule (i have a very limited experience with sd stuff) but sometimes i managed better using older versions. The last Hitachi sw (7.3) is declared as beta by the developers actually.
Hope to find a way for having this thing fixed

Do these updates affect the firmware in the Doctor, or just the host software, or both?

Thanks for your reply and i got your point, nonetheless i'm trying to have them sorted out and, fixing issues is a good way for better understanding what we do normally (imo). I worked with ace stuff and actually there are so many things i used to and which i'm not able to replicate without it, but i'm trying to keep up ;)

Following my experience I'd say both, but some doctors are more critical than others. Seagate and Hitachi got much more issues in this case :?

I'm used to fix problems :) and trying to fix that one doesn't mean that I'm avoiding other tools for working (anyway i don't have those ones, but wdmarvel is a truly good one imo).

Data compass is a fair good imager, just slow as molasses!
