W D Z S E R are adjacent keys on a QWERTY keyboard.

Is your post genuine?

Now the drive after 24h resting out of the system recognized right, but
when i tried to "write" partition table after testDisk found[and listed files], didn't help:

- still files only accessable via testDisk.

When i backup all files, i will try erase the disk and then set jumper to 7-8, will see;
if i got troubles again, will return by warranty for repair[or exchange].
