I have testet SA writing test its OK

Problems:
the hdd its not recognized by bios
Not have acces to user data


At the xp utility mount the disk may Read/write operation count remain 0

Can you help????????????????

[BlackST]

Can you attach the whole SA including groups on encrypted RAR or ZIP and PM the password ? (just for privacy)

If you start drive with loader, does it start or have problems i.e. late calibration ?

Checked the error lists (for trashed entries) and translator ?

[N.C.]

I vote for MBR problem only.

This drive should apper in BIOS, i am sure.
