[yan1982]

Hello,

We've a hdd Seagate ST3250824AS (TONKA 15 family), the problem is the following:

1.) When we start the HDD, it make sound and in terminal log, there is:
$Head Mask FFFF - Head Mask FFFF, etc. and the hdd is still in busy mode.
2.) I go to normal mode /t
3.) I use Salvation Data and I try to backup the fw module. I can backup all the modules but not the module CERT and CERT Table
4.) I stop the HDD
5.) I start the HDD in safe mode in terminal /f
6.) I can backup all the fw modules without any problem
7.) I've tried to update in normal mode the fw module CERT and CERT Table with my backup of theses modules in safe mode but the hdd is still in busy mode.

Have you an idea to help me to resolve these issue ?

HSA are ok. Probably bads in SA.
How to resolve this issue ?

I've tried a lot of thing but the hdd is always in busy mode.
I've tried to load directly in RAM APP, CERT and CERT TABLE but always busy.

I havn't any problem to backup fw in safe mode. All the modules are readables.

When I would like to launch some command, the terminal say:

No VALID Cert Code Detected
Code - ROM Resident Revision Required: 3.ADH

Thank you in advance for your help.
