WD2500JS-40MVB1 - Scans with PINK EXCLAMATION MARKS

September 1st, 2008, 8:23

I got WD2500JS-40MVB1 which acquires on MHDD but scans with PINK EXCLAMATION MARKS. Initially, I thought it was a TRANSLATOR problem. Open it on PC-3000 Utility and performed TRANSLATOR REGENERATION but I got the error message: Format error WD Techno Key Error WD Techno Key Error Device Error Detected 51/04 (ABR). I did a Head Test and SA Structure Test and all seems to be fine. Any suggestion?

I guess this means only the data is needed, not the HDD :)
