Unfortunately, there are no universal methods "releasing" the heads. You should rely on your experience and the
expertise of your colleagues.
5.3. HDD returns HDD ID (the host system detects it), but reports
capacity = 0
This malfunction can be caused by the following reasons:
♦ non-native controller board;
♦ damaged read/write heads in the HDA;
♦ broken contact between the controller board and HDA in the connector of the commutator preamplifier
(oxidized contacts, etc.) (Fig. 5.2);
♦ damaged service information (SMART, G-List, translator…).
Section 0 of this manual describes the method that can be used to ensure that the board is native. At present there are no
methods for drive restoration if its native board is lost.
If a contact is broken, try cleaning the connector, for example, using a common office eraser (see Fig. 5.1).
If magnetic heads are damaged, a drive usually produces knocking sounds when powered up. In that case it is
recommended to replace the malfunctioning heads stack.
If service data get corrupted, use the "Troubleshoot "Invalid translation (0 GB)"" menu item (Fig. 5.3). Selection of that
item makes the utility perform automatically a sequence of operations to fix the problem (Fig. 5.4) resulting in
restoration of the access to user data.
