Quick question,

Can this be repaired in HD Doctor for Seagate V.5.2 ?

Presume it's translator problem.

Regards,

Chris

Never used SD tools, but it will be a translator issue I agree.

There is a "one touch" fix in SD I believe, but it doesn't care about non-resident glists and stuff like that, so might bugger your drive up entirely.

Not used my SD tools in a couple of years.

The one touch 'fix' - succeeds, but in fact has done naff all.

Says it all about SD products really.

Is the drive still spinning?

Yes the device is still spinning, no noticeable problems. (Apart from the obvious capacity related issue).

Edit: You can write to the disk in HD Doctor.

Not up-to-date with the current terminal commands through RS232 socket - so quite stuck on this case.
