OK, I will check this tomorrow, for now it's kind of rocket science to me.

Take your time and do some reading. It will all become clear. :-)

Ctrl x was not immediately after power was supplied to the HDD. Oh well...
First, I would like to see the answer to
F3 T>V1
After V1, press enter. The answer may be either very long or very short.

V1 looks fine, what about V4?
did you apply the F commands Fzabkar recommended?

Not yet. I am taking some time for reading before I make a destruction move again.

H0 is probably weak.

I don't remember exactly, in my opinion the SMART log file is read (and written) in the SA with errors (or G-list?).
To determine more precisely, it would be nice to look at:
F3 T>V4
ctrl X
F3 T>/1
F3 1>N8
ctrl X
F3 1>/T

Pepe was right. Without special software there is a big risk of damaging the service area.
It would be right to save all modules from it first. It is impossible via the terminal on Mooze...

Can you confirm from resistance that H0 is weak?

Code:
F3 T>/7

F3 7>X

Head 00 Resistance 00FF
Head 01 Resistance 0127
Head 02 Resistance 00E2
Head 03 Resistance 00AE

F3 7>

resistance looks fine, but it can't read any sector from the start of the user area, that's why these are in AltList already. This is why windows hangs when drive is connected.

V4 it took from memory (read during loading) - it is not clear how it is read.
SMART log is read from the second copy on HD1. HD0 is not read even by SA. SA has the lowest recording density. There is no point in dreaming about the user zone.
In principle, you can disable error processing, as Frank suggested. But what will you do with HD0?..
If you want - try. It is your data.

If I understand this correctly, SA can not be backed up before heads transplant?

Why not - you can and should.
For this, you need special software that can read SA Seagate via ATA.
You can buy it or write it yourself. The fee for a DR specialist will be less. 8)

I did not mean that I am going to transplant heads by my self. My time on this planet is very limited, do not ask me why.
I am just asking to understand what is the correct procedure from now on.
If you have enough information about my drive, can you send me an offer on PM, how much it will cost me, and where are you located?

@Piper, there are ways to read the SA via terminal.

Read and Write F3 Arch Sys files with HyperTerminal :

There are no r and w commands on ST3500320AS.
I don't do DR. And my connections are limited at the moment.
