To make a story short. I read the whole thread here and there, did the cable, connected my drive but cannot go any further after the step where you remove plastic card and use U command in Putty (HyperTerminal)
My problem is:

The error i am getting after removing plastic from the SPIDER and using U commnad is the following:
F3 T>/2

F3 2>Z

HighPowerMode
Spin Down Complete
Elapsed Time 0.087 msecs
F3 2>U

R/W Status 2 R/W Error 84150180
F3 2>

AND NO ((((ANY SOUND))) IN HARD DEVICE
Who knows what is that and if it can be fixed?

hello, i just picked up a ST31000340AS one TB sata drive with troubles.
it was recognized and somewhat usable in windows but the format process would not finish and kept knocking the drive offline completely.
there was some clicking at boot time and occasionaly other times but not really obsessive.
i would have to power off and back on to get it back.
i ran the current firmware update from seagates website.
the version was SD1a i think.
now the the bios reports the correct drive model and autodetect works but i cant find any software that sees the drive at all.
the firmware appears to have killed it.

apologies not having read this thread but it seems we're talking about the same drive at least.

the last few posts seems to discuss a direct hardware flash?
i dont think i need that.. i was able to run the firm update a second time so it works to that point.

anyone with some knowledge on this problem please give me a PM? or reply here if the topic permits.

thx.

right click "my computer", select "manage" and then from there "disk management".
see if you can see your drive, if yes then right click on it and select the option to assign a letter to it.

restart your pc and see how that goes

i cannot write a new mbr with any of the mbr utils partition programs report no drive etc.

"the label on the HD says ST31000528AS, but the older ones are actually ST31000523AS ."

that statement was something i just noticed in a google result thread but does sum up the question
i have about my drive.

the firmware update almost seems to be wrong.

the drive is worse after having installed it. my drive was working intermitantly before and not at all now.

so i am wondering if i have some earlier model that should probably use firmware from the previous model.

my part number is 9BX158-303.

does anyone know where i can get the previous firmware for THIS model and what is the next nearest
previos model of this model most likley to have the same architecture/ geometry?

dangerous idea i know but at this point the the drive is worthless anyway.

Is this tutorial applicable for Seagate ST3000DM001 HDDs???

I readed somewhere that the parameter for 7200.14 drives is m0,5,1,10,3,,,22 instead the one shown at step 13, is that true?

Are all the other steps the same for that model?

I have some Seagate ST3000DM001 drives in BSY state and I want to fix them.

I only created an account to come here and say that this fix worked for me. Cost me about £10 or less for the cables , v easy to do albeit a bit fiddly and difficult to get right if cables won't play ball but it really worked and I did not think it would.

So to everyone who wrote here to post this solution and any amendments - THANK YOU

Hi everyone,
i just managed to revive a bricked seagate disk thanks to the effort and time of everyone here.
It was dead for more than three years.

First of all, I'd like to say to everyone that will try this: "READ EVERYTHING CAREFULLY"!!!

My notes on this:
1. I started at a 64bit win7 system on a macbook pro, could not get it to work, so i thought i 'd try it to a 32bit WinXP system... I dont know if this played any part to the procedure or not, but i got it working on WinXP.
2. I used this adaptor bought from ebay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/371175265028?_trksid=p2060778.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT
3. If you are using a pc (desktop, with regular towercase), you do not have to plug the grnd from the adaptor to the disk. Just the two TX-RX, if you are powering the disk from the SAME pc. It just needs to share same ground as noted in: https://sites.google.com/site/seagatefix/
4. When you open the hyper terminal, maybe you have to set it up (from properties icon>settings tab: function arrows and ctrl keys act as) to windows keys option
5. If ctrl+z does not show F3 T> then switch RX TX cables on the adaptor.

Everything else is more or less the same. Check everything thoroughly over and over but the point is that if you get to command line on hyper terminal you have many chance to fix this.

Regards

I have a momentus 5400.6 320gb external hard disk ST9230320AS which is not recognised by windows and can be seen in disk management as disk unknown not initialised. It spins up fine and spins down again after a few seconds when it appears to not load. In diskpart it has a size of 0 bytes. This 0 bytes has led me to this thread. Does it sound possible that the firmware has got damaged and this fix will solve the problem? I am by no means a programmer so this will require quite a bit of effort by myself but I wanted to check with you guys that it would be worth a go if it sounds similar to all your hard drive problems? I don't have any of the cables that is mentioned in the walk through so will have to purchase them also. Thanks

I have got a Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 1 TB ST3100528AS with CP38 firmware. Is is broken a while and after saw your posts I decided to fix it.

I bought a "USB 2.0 to UART TTL Serial Converter Module CP2102 STC Programmer With 6PIN wire" for fixing. I wired the hard drive to my pc (Windows 7 ultimate x64) and opened HyperTerminal.

I followed your every recipe and after connecting with HyperTerminal I saw symbols on screen continuously. They didn't stop so I can't write anything. I changed RX DX combination but this time I have got only a white screen. I think I connected with my hard drive but something is wrong. Have you got any idea?

Just found out that this may be the problem with my 750 GB Barracuda 7200.11 with firmware SD15. I am waiting for an adapter from amazon.com and I'll post the results. The PCB on the drive does have a discoloured heat sink pad near the motor connection.

So I just got this issue for the second time in as many years, and rather than drop another $640 at the same data recovery place that apparently didn't update the firmware the last time this happened, I've decided to try and fix it myself, but I have a couple of questions:

1. Will any USB-to-TTL adapter work, like this one for Raspberry Pi, or this one from Amazon, or does it have to be a CP2102 chipset?

2. Does Step 13 wipe the drive? post 256 makes it sound like it doesn't, but I want to be sure.

Hello,
does anyone know how to connect the adapter to a USB TTL MAXTOR IDE hard disk pata. The connector for the jumpers are so SLAVE MASTER:

: : : . :

Do you know which is the channelS that the RX - TX GND channel?

I found nothing on the net !!

On that page is this pic:

BTW, I'm having my own ST3000DM001 "not recognized" issues. Two drives failed in my raid. One of them (disk 0) was making the clicking sounds, so I figured he was toast anyway. D#0 would start up, spin up, then click 10 or 11 times, give up, spin down. I took its cover off and the heads deteriorated and there's black dust everywhere. I swapped out a set of heads from another drive, blew out the dust and tried it. I figured it was probably dead anyhow, so nothing left to lose. Yeah, it's borked.

Serial port output when powering up disk:

It doesn't look good...

Next up I'll try and sort out the other drive, which was giving COMRESET errors and actually appears in BIOS... I'll see what that one's terminal says when it turns on.

This method did not work on my hard drive 1TB Barracuda 7200.12 ST31000524AS. Just a blinking cursor in the terminal.
Probably not the solution for my problem. Hard drive when you switch on knocking ~10 times and fades out. In the system is seen as 4 GB. I don't know what else to do (except throw).

Hoping someone's still around to help me with this. Had a Seagate usb GoFlex 1TB drive suddenly become unrecognizable. Disappeared from drive management.
Sent it for free diags, they said unrepairable - firmware is corrupt, so I'm trying to use this tutorial to rebuild the firmware. I have a USB/TTL converter wired up with gnd/TX/RX to the drive, and cable plugged in for power (paper insulating the data connector).
I plugged the drive in til it stopped powering up (I dont have any weird drive sounds). Plugged in the USB (installed drivers ok), then ran hyperterminal.

At hyperterminal it doesn't bring up F3 T>, just a blinking cursor. I swapped TX and RX thinking I got them crossed, still no effect.

The pictures in the thread are nonexistent now, can someone confirm the proper pinouts for Freeplay ST1000LM010 at least? I don't know why I'm not getting a response from Hyperterm.

Beyond that I'm lost, never used Hyperterm or tried to restore a drive. HELP!
