Hi,

As you can see, the drive is not detected correctly.
So you have to check why. Maybe even the problem is not on the drive, but on cabling.

Seems unusual for model to be wrong, but not garbled, and also serial number and all other parameters are correct.

Have you verified a working drive on the channel? Does HDD still give same ID on alternative station, such as MHDD station?

Do you have legitimate Acelab PC3000?

It looks like the drive is ss'ed, or loosed the STUFF.

Firstly better to show here terminal log.
I could see there reading error (bad heads or corrupted R/W channel on PCB - popular problem on 7200.7)

this is my suspicion. Also, in my experience, 7200.7 are prone to surface damage and/or dirty heads. terminal would help.

You could swap PCB and check terminal again, but from some quantity of these cases I had in the past I would bet heads are about to die.
