Hello!
I have this drive: Seagate Archive HDD 8000GB
Model number: ST8000AS0002
P/N: 1NA17Z-003

It is fairly new and suddenly it stopped working. (no errors of any kind before that).
I connected it (now) through USB <> SATA interface and as the drive starts it does 2 CLICKS.
After that I opened Victora 5.37 and it shows:

Model: ST8000AS0002

Capacity 8089950 LBAs 4 GB
CHS: 16383/16/63 8 GB
S.M.A.R.T Enabled, Errlog, Selftest
Cache Unk.size; L/A=ON; Wr=ON; ok
Support LBA, HPA, DLM, DCO, DMA UDMA-6
Erase Time ~ 3 hours 30 minutes
Security OFF
ATA-8: SATA3, NCQ, PEC, SCT, SFDLM, WrUnk, W-R-V
SCT: AC2, AC3, AC4, AC5

What can I do? Anything I can try to revive it?

Are you able to retrieve a SMART report?

Hello fzabkar...
I'm sorry for writing like this but I can't write it directly.
I have a slightly different question...

I need to edit the ROM (bios) of an HP laptop.
I have to enter the correct serial number and other parameters needed to downgrade the ROM version (after the upgrade, the system stopped loading via TPM - it is encrypted with bitlocker and there is no key) - and the laptop does not directly accept the lower version.
My question is - do you know any software for editing HP bios, with checksum conversion?

Thank you very much in advance for your information.
Tell me priv. please.

Sorry, I don't know.

4GB capacity usually means drive is still in bootfw, could not load SA. 2 clicks point to head/surface damage as well.
