Faulty Seagate Barracuda 7200.12

[brogio]

Hi, I have a faulty Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 .

After some working, now the PC can see the disk, but he has other issues, i.e. a very long defect list.

Can I do something more to recover the data on this disk ?

I attach a log of a small debug.

Thank you.

Hi,

Do you have sector access or not even that?

[brogio]

I am using an access with RS232/TTL adapter, I don't know if this is what you mean to...

[dmarques]

No, that I can see as you posted the log.
I mean access to user (data) area.

[brogio]

Yes, I can access a part of the data.

[dmarques]

And can you check if there's any messages on terminal while you're trying to read those areas?

Beside the now compromised translator, the problem is elsewhere. Trace back what was done in the beginning.
P.s. PC3000 or SD work safely if you haven't played with translator, otherwise data will be more or less garbled. IF SO, you have to work it out.

Did you try to regen the translator using the standard 7200.11 internet fix command ?

I don't usually chit chat anymore but this post gave me a chill down my back. Regenerating the translator would not even be in my thought process.
