selfscan
February 23rd, 2007, 14:43
Have collected over the years a lot of maxtor hdd with hardware damaged sectors. Can some guru here explain me the simplest way of launching the selfscan procedure? Have read lot of post here but i'm still unclear about the way of running this "last resource". Don't mind me recovering the data, want only be able to re-use these harddisks in a decent manner-even those ones who will lost "weight" like 60GB--->40GB or even less!!
Thanks for your patience!

Yes u need to see the cpu chip bcz if it is DSP then it is there is a simple procedure but for that u would need pc3k if it is poker then u need pci or mrt and isa .

don't any of these tools. For the DSP at least what is the procedure? By the way Ardent and Agere are include in DSP, POKER or are different things though

You can not do selftest without the tool, PC3000 ISA or PCI.
