Pinclite with SA problems

Hi

I have here a WD2500AAJS-75M0A0 that was dropped.
After head swap I could reach SA, but several modules are bad (31, 33, 42...)
Not even by composite reading I can get the full modules, I have them partial.

I have tried to edit/move location but there are a lot of SA bad sectors. Module 42 I could move it, write it and recheck checksum, so that one is OK now.
But 31 I can't. I have tried to move and write partial 33, no go.
Tried to regen 33 from logs (both log modules are also bad) to try to regen 31, no go either....

I'm about to quit here. Do you guys have any suggestions?

Thanks

Yeah, the regen is probably failing because it can't write the modules back that it needs to. So if you do it on a healthy SA that's not full of bad sectors it may take.
