    Can I borrow a Seagate 500GB 7200.11

    Hey I know a few round here work with tech, wondering if anyone had a spare Seagate Barracuda 500GB 7200.11 ST3500320AS drive they could lend?
    I just need to borrow the board off it to recover the data on one I've had meet the BSY death thanks to me never updating the FW (which TBH isn't something I really do with HDDs)
    As these drives are around 10yrs old now I'm hoping someone has one sitting round doing nothing they wouldn't mind lending

    I remember that being a common enough model (although surprised an 11 ever lasted that long with solid use). If you don't get a local result, try PM'ing Zapf (also in Auckland), he should have a few.

    Yea it's done quite well considering, I should have laid it to rest a few years back now & replaced with a bigger one tho.
    Cheers for the possible source too

    Are you sure it's the PCB, Scuba-Steve?

    If the platters are OK & the case is still sealed, commercial forensic data recovery services are a possibility ... if price is no object and you can afford to wait.

    Yea it's the PCB, well more the FW contained on it; I'm looking for the quick/easy 'get it going & recover my data' nothing on it is super important it didn't come from my main PC (that one's backed up hourly); this is more a convenience thing so not looking to spend much of anything on it, the drives already been replaced just want the data back now & if the quick easy option isn't available I'll revert to the slightly harder & more time consuming RS232 to TTL adaptor fix

    OK. Just checked my stash of ex-drives. Only Seagate I have is 80 gigs I'm afraid.

    Back in the day, that was a lot.

    The first disk drives I used were about 300 Megs, the size of a fridge and cost about $20k.

    Kids today, eh?

    Nothing, doesn't know it's there. When the BSY failure hits it won't even post in BIOS/EFI

    My own server has 6x 4TB disks for 12-14TB of space... new one I'll build this year or next will be bigger again. Only thing holding me from going too big is the rebuild time when dropping a disk means increased odds of dropping another disk.

    Still have my 64MB usb stick from circa 2002 floating around somewhere... You'd probably squeeze a bios firmware onto it now

    Probably more late model Suzuki than a 70's thing, least the Suzuki may have been designed using one. It's about 57cc's

    Well if we're talking about size, I used to look after a number of AS400 sites - Telecom (when they were called that) among others. Large rooms full of full size racks, each containing 4 x 9335 drives and 2 x 9335 controllers. Each drive had 18" diameter platters and was a massive 850 meg per box, a whole 3.4 gig per rack.

    Best (or worst) of all, they were made in England and had a horrific failure rate.
    it's not a bad thing till you throw a KLR into the mix.
