It appears that the drive is identifying itself with the information in the ROM:

Code:
Analysing active 0x0D module ...

Firmware Version = 05.01A05
World Wide Name = 50014EE213686C7E
Model Number = WDC WD10SPZX-24Z10                     
Serial Number =                     

That suggests that it cannot read, or make sense of, module 0x02.

Are you able to upload 0x02?

That looks OK. The model number is longer -- WD10SPZX-24Z10T1 (SA module 02) versus WD10SPZX-24Z10 (ROM module 0D).
