Location: In your hard drive.
Its similiar to the LDR for Maxtors. I have used it a few times to jump start a Seagate drive with a damaged SA. I believe it is in the manual or pdf files.

I guess I'll break the ice.

I have the HDDoctorforSeagate and I have been doing head depop on some defective HD to repair them;
since I do not have a clean room to do a head exchange instead. Now for the head depop to take effect HDD Zerofill had to be done which if Im not mistakin writes zero to every sector and rewrite ID.
Now I did a Head#0 depop and after I did the HD zerofill it took close to 40 minutes to finish the. My objective is to minimize time and at the same time obtaining the same result (namely on level T commands in the form of Bx,y). I was thinking to change the symbol rate using the special command on terminal from 9600 symbol/sec to say 1228000 symbol/sec.
Is this possible?
I asked the technical support and they told me that they have never done it before.
But I just dont want to try until Im sure it can be done becasue I dont want to risk anything.

any advice on this will be apreciated.

regard
Pedro E.

here a qeastion for you if you repop the head or turn of a faulty head on the hard drive
why can you not do a recovery with the other heads

it sounds to me that you have to redo the hard drive all again and zero it out
for it to work again

in that case you wont be able to get any recovered data back at all


im i wrong or right

i dont see the point in this product from salvation
as the ideal is to recover data not to destroy it

I guess I didnt explain my self correctly.
I just want to REPAIR the HD not DR. the data is not important for me right now.
I wanted to know if I could set the boud rate to a higher symbol/rate value and if this would be implemented on the HDDzerofill I have to do in other for the Head depop to take place.
on a 160 GB drive I depoped H0 and it toook close to 40 minutes. so that is why Iam asking if some1 knows if this could be done.

Question .
If you do Change the Rate It will Not Matter Cos when you do Zerofill in this Tool "I might be wrong here" it uses ATA to fill all sectors with zero .Even if it does a Security Erase Like We Put Password in MHDD and Do The Rate Increase Will not Make a Difference.

Hi ,
when We Connect the Terminal To the HDD And The IDe Cable And do ROM and firmware Backup,i have few question here

1 :How Are We Sure the copied ROM is 100% Matching With the Internal ROM ,Lets Assume Some Of the Connection was not proper and we did copy the rom but the contents do not match .is this possible .Salvation should have a match feature so that we could take out all the connections and reconnect the drive and power it up and test if the rom and firmware copy was identical to the old saved copy

I had the feeling it wouldnt make a difference since when I did it it changing the symbols/second parameter it took more or less the same time as if I hadnt change the baud rate at all.

Thanks for answering me anyways.
