Hi labtech,
Any update on this?

Loki

Been busy, sorry.
No, the patient was killing heads.

I did overlook the fact that my sma hot swap donor was a 320GB (patient was 250GB). So, obviously higher LBA, potentially what may have been the cause for the error.

I sourced another donor to prep for sma hot swap, same capacity as patient and attempted the trans regen and now the regen process kept going passed the max LBA. Still not quite sure why.

Will experiment some more when having more free time.
