Furthermore, the drive's firmware, internally, is reallocating bad sectors to defect lists, trying to cope with the deteriorated condition, potentially chugging away data from sectors belonging to files. Now, as is, every single time the drive is being connected, the host OS not only tries to read data from the drive over and over excessively, but also potentially tries to write to drive (as most OSes are designed to run checkdisk scans and what not). The drive has reading issues, where 'reading' means the heads being able to read the firmware (the main firmware is stored on the disks, which is where the capacity/size of the drive is coming from and posting to the host OS) and, further, user data. Maybe something from or anyone who's ran into this one.Ĭlick to expand.I kindly suggest that imaging in this condition is not recommended, as it is not in the end user's best interest (the owner of the data).

but curious if anyone has some ideas before I quit on this one.
