HDD G-LIST - how to reset/fix/purge/edit

February 11th, 2009, 9:33

hi,

after a psu power failure my hd reports SMART attribute -> "Reallocated Sector Count" -> sky high.

my hd is WD800JB-00FMA0

i searched the forum and the web, red a gazillion pages, tried every software out there ( exept PC3000, HTR )

i tried latest WD DataLifeguard, HDD Regenerator, SalvageDATA Sector Repair, HDD Repairer, THDD, MHDD32, Victoria, Secure Erase, and a few more i found here and there, none can fix this.

what software can access the system area that is on the negative sector of the hd and wipe clean the DAMN GLIST ?

thank you.

You didn't mention that you're having problems accessing your data. Other than a potentially corrupted SMART attribute value, what problem are you having with your hard drive?
