Seagate Momentus terminal output

August 14th, 2008, 18:02

I have a ST91608220AS that won't come ready. The terminal output is below.

Is this something that requires PC3K to repair?

Oh and BTW the drive spins up just fine and doesn't make any interesting noises. The heads do their initial dance but it seems like a short one, like they can't read the service area of the drive. I just don't know if it is 'cause of bad heads or screwed-up firmware.

Sounds like I probably need PC3K or something similar for this drive.

Think so. Anyone can give a look - if you don't mind having the drive sent?

Nothing important on this drive, it is just a learning case for me.

But thank you for your help, it is appreciated. Some day I'll buy the tools for firmware. For now I just wonder...
