I would like to know what I can do to un-brick this HDD.
this is how I bricked it ( it was working before I did):
1- I connected it to an adaptec asr-3405 and started a low level format (I was not aware it would take so long, it is a 3TB HDD.)
2- I rebooted the PC to get out of this LLF
Now The HDD shows up in disk management without a drive letter and when i try to initialize it, it gives the 'data error cyclic redundancy check'

Plug in the drive and power up the system with the drive data disconnected--the drive might pick up where it left off and finish, so leave it on overnight and then reboot and reconnect it and try again.
