Dear Sir,

According to our client's database we don't have you listed as our buyer.
Nor we have received even similar complaints about our Hdds sea 7200.12/.11+p1 set.

Are you sure that you bought our tool, and not some cheap copy which is prone to have lots of different kinds of malfunction?

Kind regards,

Well,
Seems Like a Fellow Countrymen Trying To Defame a Perfectly Working Tool .If 15 Donors Cannot Get Your Drive Operational Get Professional Help .Replacement of SINGLE PLATTER Hdd Is a Piece of Cake Atleast For Me And I Do Not See Any Reason Why Nikolas Tools Would Not Work .

Are you sure you have a suitable donor? Are you sure that it is a head issue and not a firmware issue?

Hello Help Disc,

I Have attached the terminal and images of some case I Have tried and failed. How important is date code in Seagate HDD.


Kindly suggest.


Thanks

Hello Helpdisk.


Case 1

Patient Drive Donor Drive
9VMEFKR5 9VMT5JP0
ST3500418AS ST3500418AS
CC46 CC38
Date 11205 10415

Case 2
Z3T9XHJP Z3T59QW2
ST500DM002 ST500DM002
KC45 KC45
DATE 13207 13105

Is it matching. kindly help

Case 1, not a match. The date is 7 months or so off.

Case 2, might work but needs more details such as P/N to be sure. However given that it's a DM series, are you sure you've even properly diagnosed it? There's a lot of these getting misdiagnosed as head failures when it's really other issues at the root of it.

Hello Northwind.
No Corrosion on the tool .

Hello Northwind.
How important to match firmware for seagate Head replacement.

You post problem on wrong place, you should be looking at pc3k of general forum.
There is a lot of things in DR then just head change.
Seems you changed them good, but other things other should explain.
I would start from adpatives head map etc etc...but this is whole another part of DR
