Trying to identify Samsung branded Seagate family

[data-medics]

Hi all,

I've got a ST1000LM024 HN-M101MBB drive here and I'm having a hard time identifying the correct module to use in PC-3000. The drive correctly ID's, recognizes as "Seagate F3 Arch (Common)" family, and I even have sector access. But I'd really like to build a headmap and the common utility doesn't allow for that.

Does anyone know what family these are? I can't even seem to get terminal access, only scrambled data coming in when it first powers on.

Thanks for any help here.

It's a Samsung technology drive, so use the Samsung utility.

The baud rate is different to Seagate F3 hence the garbage.

Yes like pcimage says this is Samsung drive. You need to use Samsung Utility and choose HN-M101MBB.
I have one on shelf.
After power on and select family in Utility go in terminal and you will see correct Samsung output.

Pretty basic, look at the PCB. It's clearly Samsung.

Ok, thanks for the help. I guess I was just thrown off because it detects it as Seagate F3 Arch, and it does say Monumentus on the drive.

... it does say Monumentus on the drive.

Look again.

it does say Monumentus on the drive.

I believe OP's drive may come from some branded PC or something similar, as these drives sold here just have
"Model: ST1000LM024
HDD P/N: HN-M101MBB"
printed directly on the sticker and a Samsung Spinpoint logo below.

It definitely says Momentus on the drive, and it also says Spinpoint.

I've had a couple drives in the past that were Samsung branded and actually were true Seagate. I guess I thought this was another one of those, but I guess it wasn't. I don't get many Samsung drive here, this is only about the 4th one.
