Has Anyone Used The New HPE SP From Salvation?

September 11th, 2009, 16:09

I was just curious if anyone has used the latest HPE product from Salvation that is supposed to work well with the spacers in Seagate drives. What about the HDRC tool that is supposed to be good for Seagate's with up to 4 platters?

In fact I don't use them. But I think principle of their working is basically leads to centering problems.

Would you consider when platters fall out of an HRDC tool to be a "centering problem?" Thank goodness we didn't use this crap on a client's drive. IMHO, their platter tools are junk, and their ethics and customer service are even worse!

So nobody used the New HPE SP from Salvation? Salvation sold any New HPE SP until now or just release the product? I just hope to be better than HDRC(the HDRC tools are very, very, very ........ bad).

bouth solutions do not solve iner ring spacers between platter, in bouth cases they can slide over the platters, also the plastic spacers that complicate thing can damage the platters.
There is a possibile problem ,that heads are fucked, so aligment might be right. It is a tricky one.
