HDD GURU FORUMS

Hi

I'm trying to understand when loading loader on wd sometimes we gets capacity 1 (0gb) sometime we gets some of the amount of total capacity.
The problem is when loader result 0GB I can't move and change modules adress,in some HDD it will be always 0GB so when trying to change adress it will be error "redirecting adress failed".

It's not a matter of capacity, it's a matter of having SA access or not.
If not, you need to fix the reason for this, first.

ok,is the loader from the original disk not supposed to give access to sa if there is no physical damage ?
In some cases I have actually noticed that there is no access to models through aba or tracks but by ID yes it was,or not at all ,and the question is why if the loader is loaded successfully ?
But in this specific case I can read models in both ABA and TRACKS and by ID but still can not change address, there is an error "redirecting adress failed" so I can't fix the firmware.

I have now tested two SHREK LT good identified hard disks in normal mode one of them I can change adress to half modules and the other half of the modules with the error "redirecting adress failed".
The second disk all the modules can not be moved even in identified full SA access disk and presents the the error "redirecting adress failed".
I'm afraid it's a bug in MRT isn't it ?

It turns out it is not a bug.
I have a bunch of "good drive" who have passed a large amount of my tests well there are exhausted from my trial and error,those drives appear to be read only so they can hardly write therefore MRT fail to change module adress.
