seagate momentus 7200.5 ST9750420AS zero LBA

March 14th, 2013, 9:16

Hello
I have a 750gb Seagate Momentus 7200.5, model ID ST9750420AS.
I get> HDD does not support set max LBA
and> Recalibrate error Device error detected "ABR" 51/04 .
drive capacity shows zero MB.
LBA is set everywhere to minus one "-1", cannot be changed.
What should I look out for?

Sounds like a firmware issue, but what is the drive's mechanical behavior? Any weird sounds.

Post here the answer to Ctrl+U.


What would this achieve?

0 LBA generally occurs when ID is made from ROM (i.e if SA cant read) or if SA has errors (like with bad Translator or non-native ROM). You should post terminal log, check HDD for any mechanical sounds during operation, and check that spindle remains powered after DRDY is reached
