What tool? If you own the DFL I have seen some posted on the forum there might want to check there. If you own ACE legal UDMA might want to search this forum too. You can also put another drive on your tool and see the SPT value. At one time I started to collect SPT values fro drives. Will check my listing to see if I have this one.

Dear Spildit,

SPT is sectors per track.
If tool doesent show you SPT, than you need to enter it manualy

Dear Einstein9,

with all respect to you, I don't want to judge any of those tools. Every tool has some pros and cons.

I try with your settings for SPT without any success. I was able to recover some files already, but I want to see, if I can do some more

Thank you Einstein9

Most Welcome,,,

for the SD again, are you an OLD user or New?
coz i saw many LAZY SD developers who ignored MANY MANY bugs i reported in their SD from v4 up till now -----> never been solved
and you may read about it in their forum...

back to your Q again,

you may use the H.S. method with higher SPT (but not less) and it depends from family to another.
i have some records of those based on model/family which i gave you, but this is the closest i found for your case


but i have to ADMIT the DFL works and does much better ( no comparison ) between both as a fact.

and good luck again :wink:
