Recover drive with error "Sense key: 02h - not ready

October 19th, 2006, 2:26

Can anyone run through possible recovery methods?

I have what appears to be an identical, working drive arriving in the next day or so.

Drive is a Seagate ST336753LW.

You may try :

Google

Most drives can be fixed with llf from adapter bios, but then you loose your data. Atleast this is my experience.

it is possible heads problem

and better to know full error code

for example:
sense - 02
code - 04
qual - 00

full error code: 02:04:00 - 'Not ready. Start spindle motor fail'
