WD20EZRX - 00D8BP0.
The drive is very slow to react.
Takes 10 mins just to get to the utility screen but does start up 'normal'.
Both ROM or RAM head map shows no heads.
Drive does ID but that's all.
No SA by searching.

Code:
Techno mode key
Techno mode key......................... : Ok

RAM:
HDD Info reading........................ : Ok
Heads number............................ : 4
Cyl Count............................... : 256

Zone allocation table................... : Ok
SA SPT.................................. : 1740

ROM:
ROM reading............................. : HDDs ROM reading error Data request error - Device Error Detected: "CA FLUSH ALL GOT CANCELED"
ROM Firmware version.................... : Module ID 0B reading error Data request error - Device Error Detected: "CA FLUSH ALL GOT CANCELED"

Service area:
Permanent overlay....................... : Not loaded
SA dir reading (ID)..................... :  CA FLUSH ALL GOT CANCELED
SA dir reading (ABA/CHS)................ : No S/A regions info avalable
SA Access............................... : NONE

Configuration reading................... : Module 02 not found

I have never seen "CA FLUSH ALL GOT CANCELED" before. This is a 2015 drive so may have messages never seen before. Any ideas?

Unfortunately not. I get this error message and the ROM is within the Controller.
Code:
Read ROM
Into file............................... : <HDD Profile>\Data\ROM\ROM_WDC WD20EZRX-00D8PB0.bin
Recalibration error Device error detected "ABR" 61 / 04

Yes I can (you forget the basics when a strange error message comes up :?) I have attached FYI. I have tried booting with each head in the ROM but the drive just goes to ERR. Tried changing SA Regions as this is a 20B, but cannot get access to SA via CHS or ABA.

I did moved the regions but could not get access to SA.

I did complete a hot swap a little while ago (basic not smart) and could read all critical modules. I then tried to save these modules to complete a smart hot swap but the drive began laboring and struggling to read with sporadic spinning down. So I think Jono is right it does look like head failure, just with a more unusual way for the drive to react. Thanks everyone.

This case has been resolved with the help of drHDD. It was a mixture of corrupt firmware and weak heads. drHDD is highly skilled and if anyone needs a little extra help, I know he is willing to sign in and assist. He can be PM'd through this forum.
