plguzman Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 I did it with the board unscrew and is not that complicated. All you have to be is a little careful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't access to aluminium hard disc.Check all your contacts (one by one), you have problems if you have moved them.SpinDown with Z command and you screw the board.U command and check if motor works.

Yes, the fix will work again, but Seagate has changed the commands.You can see the commands:Ctrl+zF3 T>/CF3 C>QList all commands.The m command finish with a comma.

LAZAROS Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 I read the following pdf It says that the disk can unlocked with some command from hyperterminal.It does not say to unplug the PCB. Do you think this will work as described?http://www.tdubel.com/artikkelit/tiedostot...ial_english.pdf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DannyEl Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 (edited) Well, I'm stuck. Didn't advance an inch. I read pretty much everything in this topic and I don't know what is wrong. I connected the adapter to the PCB (with or without ground), connected the 3.3V cable from adapter to the red wire from power supply, tried with PCB completely or partial removed etc. but when I open Hyper Terminal and execute CTRL+z I don't see anything. Any idea what I am doing wrong? I have a 1TB drive with all my personal info on it (4 partitions) and I don't want to send it to Seagate.

fairly_inept Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 (edited) Royally Peed Off....I have followed this topic from the outset... before the "solution" was posted, in fact. A brief search into the problem seemed to put it squarely in the: 0 LBA error problem area.1. It seemed simple enough, so I purchased a 'RS232 to TTL adapter'(£8) and a prolific USB-2-COM Cable(£11) from ebay (My machine has no COM Ports). Following the directions given I could not achieve any kind of connection. I posted my wiring diagram, and was assured that I'd set it up ok. Maybe the RS232 to TTL adapter/Prolific COM Port was faulty?2. After testing the Prolific USB-2-Com port cable and getting no result from the RX/TX crossover I made, I decided to go down the 'easier' route of using a CA-42 Nokia Data Cable.3. I purchased the CA-42 Nokia cable from ebay. Price: £6 inc. Postage. Result: Nothing, same total lack of response as in 1. 4. I was informed that maybe the drivers for the nokia cable purchased on ebay were incorrect( it might be a cheap, 'knock'off') - So, I bit the bullet, went to the local nokia store and bought a 'genuine' nokia cable(£33.60). Result: Nothing, same total lack of response as in 1 & 3So, having paid out about £60 so far in bits and pieces - spent at least 7 solid hours trying to connect to the b*stard drive I am now in the same position as when I started... baffled, peed off and frustrated. Can anyone - and I mean anyone - suggest a simple, quick and easy method of connecting to my drive?[PS. If anyone living in the UK - Surrey, Sussex area - as managed follow this, can you lend a hand?] Edited March 13, 2009 by fairly_inept Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
