Hello Every one
I have a hard disk Seagate ST320413A 3.54 U5. Which knocks and gives this terminal MSG

Interface task reset
1024k x 16 buffer detected

T>Head Mask 0001 - Head Mask 0001 - Switch to full int.
$Head Mask 0001 - Switch to full int.


Some times it gives head Mask 0000

What could be done to recover data other then head change.

Thanks

Hi,

I am afraid I cannot suggest anything other than head swap. Maybe cleaning it could help too.
I experienced once that the limiter did not let the head to position properly on the outer cylinder, I had to bend it a bit to avoid this. But I don't remember what the terminal response was in this case.
