Thanks, that was the problem. Although now i have bigger problem. About hour after unbricking hdd, it started clicking and died. should we do this? i didnt see this info any message in this topic. and my setup is ready but i havent tried anything. wating ur reply. Well i don't think that happened because of fix, since most who tried succeeded without problems. It's more likely consequence of connecting/disconnecting sata power dozens of times, while trying to hook-up my setup..

Hi. Another "lucky"seagate owner here. My hard drive have BSY error. I've been trying to connect to drive using homemade converter. When i connect to terminal i got series of unreadable characters , you can see that in screenshot. Any ideas what's wrong? I tested my converter using loopback test and it works fine. I used this schematic. http://sodoityourself.com/max232-serial-level-converter/
