All this mess to save 20 Eur.
I have a feeling the entire disk is screwed now (depending on what you did with FW).
P.s. This kind of discussions are usually dropped because of legal issues and we also do not give info that can potentially be used with nefarious intentions...

You have NO idea about you were doing. Now there's almost nothing you can do with that tool - that is also INCOMPLETE. Ask someone in your area who has the right tools and know what they are doing to REFURB the drive loosing data but fixing it, maybe they can ask you 10-20 EUR. By the way, you SHOULD KNOW that most probably all data on your drive is gone. And next time think twice about using unknown stuff without knowledge. Good luck.
P.s. "maybe" data is still there, depending if you have overwritten or not the FW.

its not working cause I try with atapwd and i saw that the firm was changed the Serial number too and capacity 0 GB
any way because the good thing about making mistakes is that you learn from them.

Bonjour,
pour réparer votre disque dur essayez de formatage ou aller si vous avez un système d'exploitation Windows, puis aller pour commencer, puis mon ordinateur, puis faites un clic droit, puis gérer. essayez de cliquer delete volume, puis créer un nouveau volume simple.

No, your suggestion will not (cannot) work - the OP has already said that the drive is reporting a 0GB capacity (look earlier in the thread), which is typical of firmware-related problems. :(
