Seagate HD shutdown when we read the 18.000.000 sector

[hhddrec]

Hello HDGurus.

We need to recover data form a Seagate HD.
Our problem is that when we arrive to the 18.000.000 sector (approximately) reading the hd with a recovery software, the HD shutdown and we can not progress with the data read.

any idea?

Thaks for your help.

Use some non-windows imaging s/w.

Preferably something with reverse cloning support. (e.g. MediaTools Pro or dd_rescue).

Image to a good drive, then recover from that.

Hi to all gurus.

I am trying with MediaTools Pro. I am trying to copy disk to disk with reverse and with out reverse option, but this is the result:

With out reverse clone: at 4% of clore (aprox 18.000.000 sectors, the same before) the hd shut down
With reverse clone: at 1% of clore the hd shut down.

Any idea?

Thanks.

You'll probably need some pro cloning tool that'll control the power to the HDD when required.

e.g. Data Extractor or DeepSpar

If you're in UK, or can ship to UK, I can do this for you.
