hi
i have dropped WD20NMVW-11EDZS7, start always in BSY only,
with short TV9-TV10 i'm unable to load overlay woth WDMarvel ( return to bsy)
apply "restart FW and blocking FW" i'm able to apply overlay from donor, recognized with 0gb
09/08/2024 11:49:18: Drive: WDC ROM MODEL-SHREKLT-, family: ShrekLT (Royl), FW: 21.4AH, SN: WDC-ROM SN# XYZ----, LBA 1 - 0Gb
but i can read all modules without any error ( also not need to read 01 from file )
i'm not sure how to proceed now, past time i only need to apply "manage defect/deal with slow responding" and drive cap show up and able to read, this time slow fix seem apply correct but at reboot drive always stay in BSY

advice ?

Check Module 32 (DIR) for trouble, Clear SMART and Reallocate Lists and Verify that the ROM is consistent with the modules on the platter.
