The [FGS] Clan

the absurdity just occurred to me.

"*love*" is censored on this forum but the word is proudly displayed in the site's banner as part of the clan's name.

So do we approve of that word or not?

Personally I think it's *loving* excellent.

Someone come play DX with me. I'm bored.

I saw ya on forums and wanted to come but my guys got me into a raid in AO. Should be able to come on dx in some 10 mins.

We banned the word "nice" once. Unhelpful word in giving feedback.

nice

im just recovering data from a WD3200JB.

Disk does not spin up correctly, but i did some tricks to be able to get to data...

What i did

I got 2 working donor drives - from one i changed heads - fine, but drive still does not spin up correctly itself.

so what i did now, started the working drive - Standby - changed PCB to the other one.

and pres spin up - yeeeahha all heads test passed, SA reading successfully, but not neccessary anymore, tried to access data - see the folders of the FAT32 partition, but if i try to copy files, most of them are faulty.

so, i started cloning the drive - on Friday...

i played around with some settings and so on - it reads everything successfully, i can see data in it, but its very very slow..

from friday till now im able to copy 236Mio Sectors - from 625 Mio.

Sometimes the disk reads 100.000 without problems, after that slow, and so on, so i tried some settings with skipping 100.000 and much more.

In log i can see tons of "Drive is not ready" entries, of course, its another PCB and so on.

Any ideas for give that a boost - without turning the drive off again?
