Seagate 7200.12 hyperterminal?

December 8th, 2013, 14:35

Hello, I have two Seagate 7200.12 harddrives with sympthoms for hyperterminal. I have found this website: http://hddhelp.com.ua/7200-12.htm I think, that it should works...
Do you think that commands are similar to 7200.11 issue?
I have ST31000528AS with HP35
and ST3250318AS with also HP 35.
Any ideas?
Thanks a lot. :)

7200.12 have an issue with NRG-List (that normally is not empty) and the commands from the 7200.11 fix will damage translator in a way that you will only have partial LBA access.

Please tell us what is the problem with the drive (if it's dertected correctly or not - if you can read darta or not) and post terminal log while you try to access data on the drive.

Does it make strange clicking sounds ?


Now, I do not have these harddrives, I will do a research tomorrow. I remember only that it has sympthoms like 7200.11 and ES.2. I was successful in recovering data from these types of harddrives and also I had plenty of 7200.11s to do experiments. But these experiments were successful. :) Now I have only 2 drives of 7200.12. I think that we should solve this kind of problem because 7200.12s will be bricked in next years. Do you have any experience of this problem? You can write me a PM, if you want...
Thanks.
