Simon, Thanks for the file! It could be either heads or pcb. At this point I would swap the ROM onto a good pcb and then re-ran the diagnostics. |

Simon, From the registers I can say there's potentially an issue with the interface part of the pcb. From the current graph I can say there's head damage. The only way to clarify is to rule out the pcb first. You will need a donor anyway, be it heads or pcb |

Good news! PCB with those Toshiba drives is not something to look forward working with...big headache unless you have a lot of $$ for the right equipment. |
