General (and not general)Seagate questions - for everyone :)

[N.C.]

Hello Gurus,

Let me start the questions:

I have one ST3300931A, with a lot of bad sectors (not exactly in fixed place), and when i trying to image, i have got this message on the terminal:

.....

Failed sys sect. write
Not handled software path:

This point the drive is knocks one big, and stay BSY forever.

Now, the drive can init again, but very soon drops this issue again, so, in this way, i can't countinue the imaging without hw controll....

Somebody have any suggestion?

Thanks,
Janos

Have you disabled all error correction options?

[N.C.]

No, i have only run the T4, the head test, and leave the cable on the hdd when the image copy runs....

[jono-ats]

How do you disable ECC options in Seagate Terminal Mode?

[Doomer]

Janos ,
I Have a Stupid Question what Imaging Software/Hardware You Are trying

[Doomer]

descrease copy waiting time to 50ms

This is for wich question?

For the "Not handled software path:", or the ECC?

Thanks,
Janos

The "Not handled software path:" and hng after is a firmware bug. It occurs when drive finding hardware bad block trying to process it. You need to prevent drive from processing such bad block -> you need to decrease waiting time in copy process and kill that bad-block-processing-stuff with software reset
