Hi all,

Anyone help me with this 500Gb 7200.11 Seagate?

Terminal shows:

LED: 000000CC FAddr:024A051

I've no idea what this means, anyone shed any light on this?

Drive spins up and sounds like it calibrates, but stays BSY.

Thanks in advance.

Sean

Hi pcimage

This is the same message that is given if the PCB is not connected to the head / disk assy. So my guess is that if the spindle is running there is a problem with the heads or preamp. Don't know exactly what it means though. :cry:

Thanks guru,

Why do you need permission? Would a garrage phone you up to ask if they could 'look under the hood?"

That really gets on my nerves when clients complain their 'seals' are broken. Fair enough if we are talking mammals and I clubbed them to death, but no, we are talking a hard drive sent for an evaluation.

Sorry. Rant over.

Agree. We do almost never ask customers for permission either. All those external hard disks that come in nowadays have often head damage. One might kill the disk if letting it spin up before hda is inspected! Imho

Normally I wouldn't, but this drive is very new,and this particular client is very fussy.

RANT:-

Plumber costs $1200 USD to install a combi boiler.. People are happy to pay for some cock to fit a bloody boiler BUT don't want to pay 5/6/700 USD for data recovery?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

All a plumber needs is a fking wrench!

I feel better now :O*

you allways got to ask the clients permission unless you give them the repair sheet
which tells them the drive will be open up for the second stage.

its called covering your own arse as sometime clients can be right muppets
