Just back up your data and dont use the drive if u r willing to use the drive then clear the glist with pc3000 or any other software that u may have the drive will then work fine .

friend ,do you know what is G-list and what is P-list?

how they works..? what happen when you change P-list and what happens if you clear any of defect list..?

how modules depends on each others.?

as you answer its seem you don,t want study on drive and just throughing ideas without knowing what happend after that..

Sorry i have not so much time to make you understand..that you are wrong..So i kindly request you to not to throughing the ideas without a year of research on it.Better way to learn is to read document ..read modules combinations ..Try to understand how drives work, learn all post by experienced guys..

BTW Please don,t Reply and tell me what you do and what you learn yet..
