SAMSUNG HD400LD, TRIDENT PATA
Spins up, clicks once and then clicks found times. Stays BSY but doesn't click any more.

Terminal output:

Code:

SpnOk
spd:  0000 0000 0000
ADC: FFFF
DAC: A191
H: +00000
Unlatch Tk: 00015443

Unlatch Done
ENG>SRV>
  SvoTbl Loaded 
  BD
BITmp=0033

Every time I power cycle it "DAC" and "Unlatch Tk" returns a bitdefferent values
DAC: A090, A191, A291
Unlatch Tk: 00015443, 0001549F, 000154E0.

Is that Head failure? If so how to get compatible donor. There is no sticker on the side or P/V anywhere.

Regards,
Paul

Have you tried a soft reset and tried to read modules?

Drive is not responding 'Drive is not ready', no soft/hard reset helps here. I cannot access SA, neither in normal nor safe mode.

I agree on SA problem too by the log that the drive provides.

OK then, what can I do? Will hot-swap work here? (*I haven't tried it on Samsung)

He left this drive to recycle, so if I get suitable donor will give it a try.
