No HOST FIS-ReadyStatusFlags 2002A1A5

Heads Resistance:
0= 011f
1= 00bd
2= 0106
3= 00c6

seagate 1tb 7200.12 drive firmware jc45.
good startup voltages 5v and 12v
head is not doing resets (clicking) or drive powering down.
HD not dropped.
Objective: recover data. Client unable to budget in $800 catagory at this time.
My capabilities are hardware imaging (Atola) and terminal work.

My own opinion is that I may need to do: F3T> and enter m0,2,2,,,,,22
then clear smart then power reset command....
Any commands that are appropriate to this to prepare drive for imaging that will not make the situation worse? Suggestions please or do I suggest to client that they hold onto this drive until it can be submitted to a proper lab?

Outsource to me. With current CAD/USD exchange rate and your reseller discount, it would cost you about $235 USD + shipping.
