Hi all,

One question: HDDs who is not detected in BIOS (but spinning or “clicking” sounds), detected as ST_M13FQBL or 0mb in BIOS, and “11 clicks of death” are viable as a donor drives in data recovery or repair hard drives with PCB problems?
I asking because I have a lot here with all these errors/problems (all out of warranty), including 05 units of ST500DM002 - the worst disk manufactured in history - with ST_M13FQBL problem, I'm thinking to sell these drives for this purpose.

P.S: The incredible is Seagate simply ignore this error all this time. It's a shame, 8 years old disks is more trusftul than this crap.


Regards,

You could probably sell them on eBay as "faulty for spares only"' the PCB's might be useful to someone.
