Drive recovery from unreadable P-list module

Any gurus out there that can recover data from a WD800BB with an unreadable P-list? All other mods, except for one SMART mod, can be read correctly.

Self Scan is the key

Einstein is correct.

Another clue..... "logs"

What does it mean "unreadable p-list"?

If you do a self-scan on the drive itself, won't it erase the data?

Yes it will, but that's not what is being suggested. (Well at least I hope so, I can only speak for myself!)

pcimage is correct, but P-List module here should not be important if translator modules are OK.

I understood what you meant (and what was implied), but I'm concerned that another reader may not . . .

Ah, yes. I suppose it be construed as "run self scan" to a newbie.

Point taken.

you need to be an expert to know what mean
i guess some of the replies here know exactly what am talking about
but it all starts there in ur case here
