Recommended Posts

Hi all,

I have this hard drive

Which give me LBA 0 (very similar to the problem with 7200.11 LBA 0).

I've set up the nokia cable for seagate and already mannaged to fix hard drive with 7200.11 LBA 0 problem.

How can I fix that hard drive?

I attached a picture which shows the pins of the hard drive.

Where should I connect the RX and TX and GND of the CA-42 cable in order to fix the hard drive?

Many Thanks!!

I don't think (I'm really sure actually), the Seagate 7200.11 fix doesn't work

on these older Maxtor drives, since they have entirely different firmware.

I also only know the diagnostics pin-outs of Seagate PATA-drives, was never able

to find the correct pins on PATA Maxtors... :no:

Any other option to fix that drive?
