I am back again for more advice please :)

Samsung HD103UJ
2008.06

Scanned on MHDD and showed pattern indicating at least one slow or failing head.

Drive comes ready on PC3K but cannot access data. PC3K explorer shows 2 NTFS partitions but i cannot access the data.

Scanning for NTFS structures takes a long time and map shows a number of black sectors.

Please can anyone view my terminal log to see if i am missing anything obvious. I am thinking that a head swap is needed though?

Clone disk using available heads, see what you get. Change head stack if you don't recover whats needed.
