hi everyone,
this drive is detected by deepspar imager as drdy dsc but I don't hear any sound of platter spinning. when I do rescan it report correct model, correct serial no. but wrong lba. at the top, there is additional ERR and ABRT registers shown after rescan. even the time of rescanning, I also don't hear any sound of platter spinning. all the time I don't hear any sound of platter spinning. it's so weird. I have HD doctor for Seagate but it's too old. it cannot use with this drive model. it can't detected. I would like to know if it is both head and firmware problem. and please recommend me the solution. I am not sure if I change the head, the drive will work. please help me. thank you.

You need to use terminal
- Code:
Ctrl + z (initiates the terminal connection and should prompt with level T>)
F3 T>m0,6,3,,,,,22
F3 T>i4,1,22 (clears G-List)
F3 T>/1
F3 1>N1,,22
F3 1>
Good luck

How would this work on a drive that isn't spinning?
It's not a "one size fits all" fix!

If don't trust the machine, just use an external power supply along with MHDD to confirm spinning and status register.

btw, the order of the commands is completely wrong...
