jaclaz Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 My guesses premised that the OP may be confusing what the BIOS is just in case Actually if we knew the motherboard model it would help rule that out.If one could go this way , "other possibilities" include (with the premise that the OP may keep the PC underground, but knows what the BIOS is) that a little mouse could have eaten the IDE or SATA cable. B) More seriously, I have seen often SATA cables get disconnected even if the case had no or very little shocks/movements...double checking cables would be a good idea anyway.jaclaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lost00 Posted January 29, 2009 Author Share Posted January 29, 2009 (edited) My motherboard is AMD Gigabyte GA-MA770-DS3. I was using Gigabyte SATA cable(click for cable image) for my SATA harddisk.

lost00 Posted January 31, 2009 Author Share Posted January 31, 2009 What firmware do you have? This issue has three stickies in the hardware hangout. It is a firmware problem affecting mainly the 7200.11 drives but also yours. Look: http://seagate.custkb.com/seagate/crm/self...sp?DocId=207969Firmware didn't fix my harddisk problem. Can you prefer me data recovery programme for my problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaclaz Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 Can you prefer me data recovery programme for my problem?Let's start again.If it's shown as BUSY, it is damaged in it's firmware.There is NO data recovery program (software) on earth capable to recover from a BUSY (firmware) problem, it simply cannot see the drive.You cannot possibly have applied the new firmware to a locked drive, you need a RS232-TTL interface and unlock the drive:http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=128807or send it to Seagate.jaclaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
