HI, i am trying to save data for a friend from a “failed” hard drive (his first born daughter pics).
Western Digital WD3200AAJS Internal SATA drive.
The drive shows in the Computer Management, but I cannot initialize the disk, I have the error message: “Incorrect Function”.
When i run diskpart , detail disk, I have the below:
SCSI Disk Devise
Disk ID: 00000000
Type: SATA
Status: Online
Path: 5
Target: 0
LUN ID: 0
Location path: PCIROOT(0)#ATA9C05T00L00)
Current Read-omly state: Yes
Read-only: Yes
Boot Disk: No
Pagefile Disk: No
Hibernation File Disk: No
Crashdump Disk: No
Clustered Disk: No
There are no volumes.
and if i try to run Data Lifeguard Diagnostic for DOS, when i boot from the usb I have some message saying something like: Error reading partition table drive 03h sector 0Error reading partition table…
I can hear the drive spinning.
any suggestion?
Thanks.
Peff
