The headmap of the one I posted is different, but it includes all those heads, so maybe you can just disable the ones you don't need... :?

I think this should work, I will try tomorrow when I get into the office. Thank you so much.

I would expect the headmap to be different. The drive is marked as a 1TB model but everything I can see matches up to the 2TB model including the heads I used for donors. I believe this drive was originally a 2TB refurbed into a 1TB from the factory and they physically disabled some heads.

I will be sure to update you tommorow as to my results. Thanks again!
