Not that it is a big deal for any of you guys.

Cool. Your software is probably already better than Salvation Data.

The software is being written by me as I learn. It has been quite rewarding as well. See here

Guys, this is for me to learn really. I like getting opinions from everyone because it is very helpfull in my direction. I must say that I owe the most to Doomer, and Pepe. Thank you guys! I figure there is no harm in releasing tools that will read, but outside of the ATA terminal portion I will not put out anything that can write. As of this time I am maintaining 2 code versions, one for me and one to post. What else do you guys want to see? lets make this fun.

sweet job, i would be happy with a tool that will tell me that the Firmware is corrupted before i go around Probing components with a meter thinking the clicking sound is from a dropped hard drive

not the best viewing point.
Pro can recognize easily and safely problems without making things more worse.
I never powerup the drive wich is known dropped before, i give a quote without this.

So the correct order is this:

- Measuring everithing critical
- probe of the PCB alone and masure again
- measure preamp
- make sure about the drive was not dropped!
(if surely not dropped)
- powerup and diagnose by sw
(if possible dropped)
- go into the cleanroom and see

This way is safe.

Nice job, what language did you write it in? C#?

N.C. I agree completely. I will never give out something that can write data back. I am debating the next version as well as it retrieves the SA tracks. My fear is that people will start using it for password unlocking etc on the WD side. I left out the ROM writing for the obvious reasons, even removed the code completely to prevent even the craftiest person.
