bootstrap for HDD WD5000AAVS-00ZTBO

April 21st, 2026, 7:48

Hello ALL, thanks to this forum and relative people i have learned how an hard drive works, and how are the various functions of modules inside Service Area.
I have connected a JTAG interface, and started to play with a CPU 88i6745 for curiousity....
Unfortunately, playing with various firmwares loading, reloading, i have finished to brick the board.
I have already ordered a new one, but i must wait 15 days before arrives.
I just world ask if someone has a bootloader (bootstrap) dump (0xffff0000) for this board:

2060-701444-004 rev A - HDD WD5000AAVS-00ZTB0 firmware 005C003G

Thanks you very much to all!
