What did you/the owner do BEFORE ?

Before BUSY it slowed down.

I mean if there was some 'internet magic commands' action, or shocked, or...

T>i4,1,22

and

1>N1

before (N1 and i4,1,22) end of log was a little different

All this on a ST1000DL002 ?

Even worse, also this assumption to me is wrong.
Probably it was a relatively simple problem in the beginning, the disk just needed to be cloned safely after stabilizing the Fw and then eventually refurbished. Now I would only trust PC3000...

It's still visible in MHDD and BUSY (like before N1 and i4,i,22)
After about 2 hours of "InitiateMarkPendingReallocateRequest for disc_lba" still visible in MHDD and BUSY.
After reconnecting in terminal it shows the same log, but without "InitiateMarkPendingReallocateRequest for disc_lba" (like in the beginning).

So from the terminal point of view and MHDD behaviour nothing's changed.

hi
i think this drive should be a GRENADA family -ROM LUXOR (maybe luxor_2_1).
why not to try to stop relocation through CONGEN?
after you can check lists for pending sectors and try to read (in ESLIP mode if needed)

hope this can help
Bye
Luca

Thank you.
I've read somewhere about it, but i can't find proper instruction.
I think it should be something like: T>Fsomething

T>Fxxxx,yy

where xxxx is the flag address, yy is the value you want to change the flag to. It even spells out all the flag values. Use F alone to list flags, F with addr to list that flag address, and with value in hex at yy to modify.

Look at the top of F listing, the first set is what you probably want to modify, RWRecoveryFlags. Names should be pretty self explanatory.

Hello

I have a similar issue on a friends disk

Seagate Barracuda Green 2TB

st1000dl001

Wont show passport etc as wont come ready
Busy signal stays green for 15 seconds or so, then does go not-busy

Serial connection (38400)

power on
after a few seconds get the following

Rst 0x20M
RW: Disc Ctlr Initialization Completed.

(P) SATA Reset


then nothing
no respose to ctrl-Z

But if wait a few minutes, get

ASCII Diag mode

F3 T>

/2 works to get to F3 2>
but not planning to do anything for a while until I can remember any non-destructive commands


No LED error, so not sure what to try first

Thanks for any suggestions

but ctrl-z . seems to eventually get it back

Anyone any suggestions ?

The initial 1-2 minutes wait after power on before it responds to ^Z is strange
Does it suggest anything ?

Z and U spin down /up ok
with no LED error

Have you tried clearing SMART already?

Now to see / remember how to read a user LBA into the rd memory buffer (and locate the buffer)

but still don't really understand where to find user LBA's from the internal physical cylinders heads etc

No, not tries clearing SMART yet

with 1>N1 (if appropriate to an F3)

as don't want to risk anything yet

Is there a way to read SMART from the terminal ?


Also, regarding the delay between power on and ^Z being accepted -- I have a working 7200.12 that does that so might be normal
