my Drive was not found anymore on my computer!

I read much bout firmware problems.

I build some parts to contact the drive,

Here is the output of putty:

Can anyone help me ?

What commands i had to type?

What exactly happened before and AFTER the drive didn't come up on PC anymore ? (I don't believe in ghosts...)

A systemmessage comes up mbr..... or if more then 2gb or so i canceld the nessage!

And after that the hdd cant find in bios or system.

Hello,
i've the same problem with this seagate 2TB-HDD and the same terminallog.
Did anyone find a solution for this problem or can give a hint?
Thanks in advance.

Power it Up again, and listen carefully does it spin normal or some small heads movement issue?
listen carefully to the sound.

Advice, if you dono just get a working one same model and compare the sound in both you should notice the diff.

good luck

It Spins normal!

I have seen this problem just once, but client needed same day service and I had no time to find solution.

I can tell you that is 100% not a simple / DIY fix.

You need professional assistance for any hope of saving your data. Any attempts at the repair / recovery will very likely cause further complications and incur additional work in a professional lab.

correct, more DIY result in more damage
