Greetings,

Following this tutorial, I am struggling with getting WDR to detect the patient HDD.

This is the PC I am using for WDR:

WDMarvel Demo has no problem detecting and reading the patient HDD. Is there a way how to get the patient HDD detected and read correctly in WDR?

I forgot to mention these are the SATA drivers used:

Spildit's tutorial expects that the target drive is able to respond to ATA commands. To this end, the easiest solution (in the absence of pro tools) would be to purchase a working donor drive and flash the donor's ROM with the patient's ROM image. You will sacrifice the donor HDD, but your patient drive should now work with the donor's PCB.

Of course you should backup the donor's resources. The demo version of WDMarvel can do this.
