Received above HDD in Head bad condition.
After Head replacement it stated and i could image the disk up to 25 % then heads failed again.
I replaced another few set of heads but with all the heads ( Matching Micro ) it detects perfectly reads all the modules as well but does not give sector access. Taken following steps to clear the issue
Tried to regenerate translator still the same problem
Cleared Relo list - No effect.

Any suggestions experts .

Heads may not be compatible despite micro matching. Or may be init issue with heads requiring a little magic.

Is the magic of micro jog ?
Or something else
