Hi,

I can send U one. please place lets say 20000USD onto my account.
Why is it that so many people think others work for sh.t?
Please just take five minutes thinking what U would say for such idea if U have worked some years on something others would just send away by email.

I hope U get the idea!

pepe

Hello,

All of us started where U did. If U have some interest in HDD repairing/data recovery, U have to start at the beginning. You have to have a minimal understanding of how microcomputers are built (HDD is one of them) and the basics of their work. Some familiarity with electronics is also desirable.
Furthermore U should study the ATA interface commands, protocols and get familiar with programming theese protocols in whatever programming language U know. (I suggest Assembly and C(++)).
The next step is to study basic file system structures and understand how file systems work.
To do all this U won't need to access any FW area.
If U arrive at the point that U have basic knowledge of all this, and U did some successful recoveries, U will have some financial resources to buy things that cost lots of $$$$, or U may choose to start research in this area.
I have to tell here that many guys working in this business worked really hard, spent many nights coding instead of sleeping, briefly they paid the price of knowledge.
I hope U understand.
If there are other things we can help, I am sure we will.

regards,
pepe

dear pepe
thanks you for response my question
my intention is to investigate on the subject but it costs to know of where to begin
I am in favor to 5 matters to receive to me of electronics engineer and have basic knowledge of assembler (programming in protected mode processors intel 80x86)
the subject, as I said to him before, it is that is very difficult to obtain information on this, for example in the Web consegui the maxtor program firmware to repair, from salvation it dates and I could recover several maxtor 541dx series, it is why I ask if habia some other utility for others modelso of discs
really did not go my intention to request to anybody the work to him of years, single my consultation was to know if exist some utility, since I dedicate to many hours to the warm day to this
task greetings

Why 20000USD?

Go to first market and:

Are you losing your valuable data on your HDD?
Is it annoying? But it keeps happen all the time.
Maxtor Firmware Repairer PRO is a newly released product Aiming at solution for firmware malfunction of Maxtor HDDs, which may manifest itself as follows:
1. HDD is not identified or identified by its factory alias (Maxtor N40P, Maxtor Romulus, Maxtor Athena, Maxtor Ares64, Maxtor Calypso, Maxtor Proxima, Maxtor Rigel...);
2. HDD starts the motor and then hangs.
3. HDD capacity is identified incorrectly in the BIOS, more or less;
4. HDD can identify correctly in the BIOS, but all sectors are displayed as bad sectors, space partitioning is impossible;
5. HDD is very slow in reading/writing/formatting.
This powerful software will not damage the data when functioning and fixing the malfunction so it is applicable to data recovery. It provides the users with a most friendly operating system and it only takes you one click plus a few seconds to restore an HDD with typical firmware malfunction and get your data back.

400USD.

Because you pay for the software and not for the knowledge....
And imho no "magic wand" programs. To push a button and wait drinking your coffee with morning newspaper....

Some people would have a heart attack! I'm not spending that much for fixing a hard disk drive!

Until the manufacturer of PC3000 changes it's tune, there's gonna be more e-waste dumped into dumpsters and likely landfills!

I minus will save up for a brand new car then!
