If you know how to solve the issue with 3 wires please tell the forum. we are here to share the knowledge but some of us has fear of loosing their bread. Which I dont agree.

Waiting and expecting the solution from you.

3 Wires = TX, RX and GND (Transmit, Receive and Ground)

All you need now is to know which pins to use on the Seagate end and the COM port end. Oh yes, in your teminal program settings you need to set the Baud rate, flow control, Stop and Parity Bit settings and then you only need the command sets to repair the drive and your set to go .. Or you could send it to a DR company that already knows this info.. note that sending the wrong commands down the terminal pipe can set factory self-scan modes running or other factory commands that will render access to the data impossible, or may even overwrite it.. To make this more likely, casing is important so uppercase 'X' and lowercase 'x' are two separate commands as is CTRL-'X', ALT-'X'

The Seagate F3 Arch commands are not the same as older Seagate 7200.7 - 7200.10 commands, and there is still research going on as to what the commands - that have been found - do .. So if the data has any value, please consider a data recovery company that has the technology and experience to repair the drives.

ok, and how pc 3000 udma knows this commands and boots up HD with service firmware? Where it gets this firmware and commands? iz it seagate leek?;)

[gsustek]

if you have SA error you can put the same good drive into sleep, after initialization in windows, and after that move that PCB to faulty drive,and weak hdd...this would work on 25% cases..

GSUSTEK, I don't want to be rude, but sometimes I cannot resist : the problems on the 7200.11 came out a long time ago : while many people (lazy or too busy we CANNOT judge) have waited a COMMERCIAL solution like PC3000 or Salvation, other people HARDLY worked out other solutions. In fact many people had the solution BEFORE Ace and SD made a commercially available update for their tools. If you work it out and know what to do you'll find the solution by yourself (of course if you're not a newbie and you know how stuff works). They simply found the solution by themselves and added some feature in their tools.
If you want the solution, ready made, dig in your pockets and buy a PC3000 UDMA or SalvationData HD DOCTOR for seagate or work it out by yourself. IT IS POSSIBLE, or better : YES WE CAN (more politically correct).

BlackST i am very sorry if i make you angry, Admin, please delete my post above.
I am newbie on this and i just want to get data from my hdd, it is on garanty...

I apologuise.

if anyone want me to help, send me PM...
Adn whenn i get my data, you dont see me again here..

[BlackST]

Then why don't you send the drive to a pro that will get the data back FOR SURE without risk?

[darkforce1]

Here is the bit light on 7200.11 Command
just put ? after the Command and it will describe itself.

i.e T>x? ( see the result)

Try and see your self.

Darkforce,
With due respect, well, it's great to have a torch, but only in the dark.
We should not "always" turn our torches on.

[hddguy]

Well I for one appreciate your efforts, and can see the value in your video, but its just a shame that nobody else seems to

[darkforce1]

Thank You Hddguy for the appreciation . I have only posted the small efficiency of UDMA. As no member till now has provided any solution for 7200.11.

Once again Thank You

DF

[hddguy]

I have the update, but thanks to the salvation fix I do not currently have any 7200.11 to repair lol

[gsustek]

Is there a difrenece beetwen SD11(Thailand) and SD22 firmware (China) in ST332613AS HDD, in PCB or in SA?
Could i change PCBs and everything will work?

Way Seagate tell that there is no new firmware for this drive beside SD11?

[pcimage]

ROM on PCB is unique for 7200.11
