If you want to see the individual heads, you need to short-stroke the drive. Set the range from 0 to 10GB, say. Adjust this range until you see 40 heads or more in the graph. Use the screenshots at the HDD Oracle as your guide.

Even if, there 2 ROMs on the PCBs that are bundled as a RAID-0. You have to Decode both ROM-Files with certain Tools like PC3K.

Or you could use my Seagate ROM RAID assembly tool:

Oh nice to know! But Link doesn't work. :(

We had a case recently where we readed both ROMs with our ROM-Reader and tried to Decode them via PC3K -> The Program crashed on any PC and/or any PC3K Version (Portable PRO, Express, UDMA, etc). We readed them before with our Programmer-Device without errors and did verification afterwards. Even Ace-Support had the same issue when they tried it. Content in Hex looked absolutely normal, even ROM Techmode-Patch with ROM1 was possible. But no decoding. Very strange.

Would try it with your program again.

You need Firefox to access HDD Oracle (because of ongoing DDOS attack mitigation). Alternatively, you can upload your ROM dumps and I'll assemble the RAID for you.

Link doesn't work on browser as Chrome, Edge, Brave due to DDOS attack.
Use Firefox, it works fine.
