Hi

I have this HDD with a strange behaviour.
I hear no clicks.
It's well detected, can read all resources without any problem.
But When I try to read sectors, I get Read Error 48-bit Device error detected UNC.
But sometimes the same sector can be read.
On PC3K, head test is OK, but on DDI, the head's show failures, altough I could already imaged a piece of the drive.
What device should I trust?
I have tried to clear G-List, SMART and translator regen, but the same happens.
Thanks

Heads test was done in DE? And it is the same as in DDI?

ok, there u go, DE may confirm or not same behavior as DDI. Then at least you know what is going on for sure. Two good tools can't be wrong at the same time. :mrgreen:

I didn't bought DE for now, because I own the DDI :oops:

Oh, I see.. seems like bads to me, though, at least for now.
If imaging as is, definitely only do it under supervision. 5400.6 will go kaput in a heart-beat and cause media damage.
