ST31000524AS F/W: JC45 NO TERMINAL ???

[gps31]

Seagate 1TB ST31000524AS with Firmware JC45.

HDD is not detected.

No messages in Terminal Window even Rom Boot msg.

Can read and write rom via MRT without problem.

Changed PCB no use. The same pcb gives terminal msg with CC4? firmware( for testing) but not with JC45.

What is the problem?

Here attached the ROM copy.

Bootfirmware cann't read SA. In CC4x, the main code is in ROM, in JC45 - on platters.
