Yeah, trying to disable the top head since the top platter has a visible scratch ring. Seems no matter what I edit in the ROM of this one I get this error. Edit physical head map... error, edit logical head map...error, edit SAP control flags....error.
The only thing I can assume is that it's not properly recalculating the checksum for this one which is making the PCB refuse to even spin it up and spitting out this error.

what about physical cutting the Top head?? Perhaps friction caused by scratching prevents the rest of the healthy heads of reading?
ST2000DM001 just as common as can be.Blizzard":9wg7lsek said:

I haven't actually even tried replacing the heads yet. I was just hoping to see if it would ID after disabling the top head to know if it even has a chance at all. What's odd is that after modifying SAP or anything else in ROM it doesn't even spin up which I've never seen before with a Grenada.
