Seagate ST3250310AS 3.AAB

[CypherHackz]

I have one Seagate hard disk, ST3250310AS 3.AAB. I believe, the head is having a problem because the hard disk does not detect by the computer and also heard the sounds of the hard disk spins fast and slow. So I get a donor hard disk which has same model, firmware, part number and country code.

However, after I replaced the head with the donor, the hard disk still not detect and still produce same spinning sounds. Then I thought it might because of the motor. After do platter swap, the hard disk is now detected by MHDD but when run the SCAN command, after a few sectors, there are many X's shown on terminal.

In your opinion, what is the real problem of this hard disk? I will be very grateful if you can give some advices or solutions to solve this problem.

Thank you for your help.

Hi,

BTW, have you tried to check terminal log before swapping heads?

Did you mean the log from MHDD?

[dmarques]

No, I mean Seagate log.

I am not sure how to get the log from Seagate HDD.
