October 10th, 2010, 12:23

When starting out a repeated clank
I have access to the firmware I managed to make a image, after he starting LBA 63
After the first 10 Gb hard disk that can no longer get regular Clank.
Question would be if they can fix it? or the customer will be content with the data
Any advice is welcome.
Thanks

repair the drive is not worth, buy a new one.

if you need the data you will need expensive tools for that.
