Hallo !
I own(ed)
three Samsung SV0602H. Two of them have bad sectors (according to HD-Tune) ...
Therefore i checked them with HUtil 2.02 (from Samsung´s homepage) ... same result
After "Low Level Format"
. BIOS see the drives, but tells "drive fails"
. the drives can not start, but i can use them in Windows
. there are much more bad sectors
. S.M.A.R.T is gone
. and some more errors ...
What happened ?
What can i do ?

Hallo !
Could it be the HUTIL v2.02 special version from HDDGURU FILES ?
And there the "BURN IN" command ?
But from where i get the "B/I Script File" ?

Hallo !
>driveRecovery<
thank you,
but a "Low Level Format" was done and before required data were saved ...
I played a little with HUTIL v2.02 special version from HDDGURU FILES
and with "INITIALIZE SMART" S.M.A.R.T returned
(also BIOS and DOS recognition)
My BIG problem is now the "DEFECT LIST"
How can i get back/manually restore this one ?

I found Palo_SVC_Manual_Eng.pdf in HDDGURU FILES / SAMSUNG / service manuals.
In that i found information about "Maintenance Cylinder Configuration".
There are 12 Cylinders with the information i need.
But how can i read out these cylinders from the good harddisk and
write these down on my "defect" harddisk ?
I see over 500 views ... Can really no one answer my questions/help me ?

You can do that with VTOOL...
But I advice use BURN-IN-TEST,
this test executed on samsung drives as final test (see Palo Manual) before drives go to the customers. To run BIT (BURN-IN-TEST) you need to download special firmware to drive - burn-in firmware and (usually) connect it to independent power supply. Drive scan itself for errors and try to correct it, after 8-10 hours it finishes and in module called BISPT in maintance cylinder you can see result, header of module :
END - All OK, download main firmware and use
CONT - Burn-in-test is not ended yet
FAIL - Sorry... drive is gone.
Check PM.
