Hi there,
I am new to hard drive recovery and stumbled over this forum searching for a solution for my Seagate ST3000DM001. It is from an external hard drive and it seams to me that there is some problem with the PCB. The BIOS does not detect it and the Linux kernel gives me some error messages:
Code:

But it spins up and sounds normally, except that I do not hear the heads move after initial spin up. I managed to assemble an USB to Serial converter and TTL level shifter yesterday. The terminal gives me the following output (if the drive is connected to my computer):
Code:
Boot 0x40M
Spin Up
Trans.
Spin Up
SpinOK
(P) SATA Reset
(S) SATA Reset
If I press
Strg + z nothing happens, but according to my oscilloscope the data is transmitted correctly.
Drive Data:
- Model: ST3000DM001
- SN: W1F2W8P8
- PN: 1E6166-570
- FW: CC45
- Date: 13407
- Site: WU
The data is not too important but it would be nice to get it back. Any ideas what could be wrong with my drive?
Thank you in advance.
Greetings
