The most popular problem of Seagate F3 drives it’s problem with Translator. Bassicaly such drives get access just to first part of users area, but the other part is unavailable for reading. Such behavior could be if Translation table have wrong defect record or Translatior module is damaged.
In this video we would like to show you how solve such cases by “Recovery translator” option.
In this video you will find detail description how to recover data from Samsung SSD drives based on different types and generation of controllers. Also, this video contain information about functionality, options and different features whuich are presented in this Active Utility.
Supported drives:
In this video you will find detail description how to recover data from Seagate 600 and Corsair Neutron SSD drives based on LAMD controller (LM87800 ). Also, this video contain information about functionality, options and different features whuich are presented in this Active Utility.
Supported drives:
In this video you will find information about data recovery process from SSD Kingston v100 based on JMF616 and TC58NCF616GDT controllers. For now, JMicron company belong to Toshiba, and all moders SSD drives based on Toshiba controllers have the same structure of controller and microcode as JMF based SSD. Engineers from Toshiba use all previous developments and use them in their latest models of SSD. At this moment JMF\Toshiba Active utility support only native Kinston v100 drive.
In future, a couple of new native-Toshiba drives will be added in our Utility.
Supported drives:
In this video you will find detail description how to recover data from Intel SSD drives based on Intel Postville controller (PC29AS21AA0). Also, this video contain information about functionality, options and different features whuich are presented in this Active Utility.
Supported drives:
In this video you will find detail description how to recover data from Crusial and Micron SSD drives based on Marwell VanGogh \ VanGogh 2 controllers (88SS9174, 88SS9187). Also, this video contain information about functionality, options and different features whuich are presented in this Active Utility.
Supported drives:
+ some other drives based on VanGogh controllers (including mSATA models).
Lets look on the situation when Seagate F3 drive successfully reach Ready State, launch the motor spindle, but as soon as we trying to launch Seagate F3 Utility, drive goes in BSY state and show LED:CC error message.
In this situation drive have a correct Drive ID but capacity is missed for some reason. This behaviour might appear if the drive can’t to initialize techno mode via utility. The reason of such problem could be caused by overlays issue.
In this video we would like to show how to fix this problem by loading overlays in RAM by loader.
One of the most popular problem with Seagate F3 drives is problem with Translator.
In this video we would like to show you how to fix “No HOST FIS-ReadyStatusFlags“ error.
We have a drive that remains in Busy state and not recognize in utility.
First of all we need to determine what a problem exactly.
Let’s open utility forced and switch on the power supply.
Take a look on the terminal report.
As we can see drive have few error messages that allow us to understand a problem:
SIM ERROR 3005 (mean that “format corrupted flag” in on and Translator is not loaded in RAM)
“No HOST FIS-ReadyStatusFlags” (reason message: why translator is not loaded).
Such behavior could be if drive have problem with:
– Translator
– Service area
– Heads issue
– PCB issue
Sometimes might be the situation when one or more modules in Service Area of WD drive is damaged. The plot of this problem is simple – all heads are working fine, but the place where the module is situated filled by BAD sectors, and any writing operation in this place is impossible. As the result, we get the situation when user area will not be available untill we will not fix this damaged module.
In this video we would like to tell you how to transfer SA module from damaged place to another healthy part of Service Area.
P.S. Don’t forget to turn-on Subtitles! 😉
