I am working on a old seagate ST3160813AS /CC2J hard disk.
It gets detected in UDMA-E shows correct model /serial /FW but size is 0mb.
I have applied 0mb Translation violation solution but is not working.
How to go ahead now any suggestions pls.

Judging by the screenshots, you regen the translator. Power off/on. Size shows? Smart cleaned?

Hi E123,
Yes I tried to clear smart but its not working , disk gives LED error. Also tried to regen translator , process gets completed but after power on/ off capacity is still not regained.

I have CC2J. In the place where you have an error there is a transition "to nowhere." Perhaps a bug. Although I do not exclude that I disassembled something incorrectly. In any case, I can advise changing the firmware to some not so rare one.
