HI

Highly appreciate your feed back, It is actually the device which is connect to Rx,Tx & Ground jumpers of the hard disk & connect the device into usb port and working F3 commands for Seagate.

@Spildit, PC3K allows you access to WD drives to ROM, SA and user data using TTL.

Actually even PC-3000 can't read WD SA via TTL, rather it uses vendor specific ATA commands through SATA. Only read/writes ROM using TTL in boot ROM code mode.

Hi,

Thanks for the all information. As a beginner im looking for firmware app + device at lower cost than MRT or PC3K. Can any one give me an indication where can I buy?
