This is another controller identical to the one of the broken HDD
Of course you understand why I want to revive the broken Drive. With this controller the HDD boots properly
However this controller has problems with the parking routines for the head assembly.
As a net result I still have 4 TiB that i can't access on a good drive because the replacement controller has another issue

Cada tecnología brilla en lo suyo: los HDD son reyes del almacenamiento masivo y económico (ideales para tus respaldos de Docker); los SSD SATA reviven computadoras viejas con un gran balance de velocidad; y los NVMe son la velocidad pura, directos a la placa madre, perfectos para sistemas operativos e IA.
¡Elige capacidad con HDD o velocidad brutal con NVMe! 💾⚡

HDD in Azul
This is a sublime dark blue rendering of a SATA HDD
I created The composition of this Drive to contrast the sad fact that it's controller finally gave up and died a Silent Death.
The HDD controller fried itself after 19 years of dependable service.
My drive bay suddenly went into short protection, which gave me the indication that there was something wrong with the power circuit.I naively thought that it was something else, not realizing how long this drive has worked, stable, quietly, as hard as it can, as dependable as it can be. That's something I was not used to from Seagate consumer drives. It's partner drive died more than 10 years ago. It still made it to commendable age
I would have replaced this drive and many others if hard drive prices were normal:
- 8 TB HDD USD$120
- 16 TB HDD USD 300
- 22 TB HDD USD 450
All these drives are consumer grade none of them are server drives. Now I need a total of 128 TB of new HDD space. That's because I not only need to replace but I also need to expand the space
I will have to buy hard drives at the exorbitant prices which are now current. Now the LLM large language model slop shit hits hard here
Since I don't have the cash for this free I need to get myself sponsoring the drive space is needed for computing work
LLM price gouging sucks sweaty wet balls
At least I have been able to get myself a beautiful composition of the corps of the drive

[Перевод] Хакинг прошивок жёстких дисков
В прошлом году я работал над эксплойтом для консоли Xbox 360 (который позже превратился в столь ожидавшийся программный мод), и мне оказалось нужно найти способ модификации прошивки HDD, чтобы обеспечить эксплойт состояние гонки. Для этого я начал пытаться модифицировать прошивки HDD и SSD разных брендов, которые у меня имелись. В этой серии постов я опишу всю проделанную мной работу, в том числе дампинг и анализ прошивки, интерактивную отладку HDD при помощи JTAG, модификацию прошивки накопителя, а также применение ИИ для анализа и идентификации неизвестной архитектуры микроконтроллеров. В этом первом посте я расскажу о дампинге, анализе и модификации прошивок HDD. Вся работа выполнялась без помощи ИИ. В следующем посте я опишу, как использовал ИИ для выполнения похожей работы с другими HDD/SSD, а также для реверс-инжиниринга «чёрного ящика» неизвестной архитектуры набора команд, предоставив Claude доступ для отладки моего жёсткого диска.

And so commence the final surgeries. 16tb (2x8tb) to be transplanted from the Win beast to the new 4-bay #Orico media center unit. Once upon a time this was SO much storage space in a single drive. Now I feel like I’m going to be eating dinner from a kiddie bowl from IKEA.
Following this I will transplant the #RTX3080 and motherboard/CPU/RAM to a smaller case and that will become the new game room PC. 64gb, 16 CPU cores. Christ how the mighty have fallen. #windows #datahoarder #pc #hdd #nvidia

Handbook for Securely Formatting External Hard Disk or Solid State Drive.
With latest release of macOS, Apple has stopped allowing users to format HDD or SSD with 7 pass erase cycles. Let's learn how to do it with Terminal.

Are their any portable external hdds that have a way to check the health of the controller hardware, instead of just the disk media?

SSD death ☠️💀
I am busy rebuilding the data from an SSD which died all of a sudden from one moment to the next without giving any warnings in any manner in any way.
I always monitor SMART output of SSD drives & mechanical spinners (HDD)
I've not seen any smart output indicating imminante dead
This drive has acted like your girlfriend when she's just not in a good mood and without explanation says nothing to you in the morning, for hours.
This hard crash, means that the S.M.A.R.T. monitoring hardware didn't have proper Communications with the integrated circuits on the SSD.
The drive was always powered many times a month, never left without power for more than a week or so, thus that has not been a contributing factor to the SSD catastrophic failure
The drive itself is fairly small.
The data on this dead SSD I've backed up on remote drives connected in JBOD format to machines which I have running remotely.
No ZFS on my backup machines
- I want to run ZFS native
- that means running a BSD OS on those machines
- that also means I will need to backup / restore all data on those drives meaning
- I will need 200% of the used HDD / SSD space on those machines
- I need patience for that backup
- I need expensive extra HDD's for that project
- I won't pay USD 300 for a USD 120 HDD
NO ZFS under these global SSD / HDD market prices

Detailed compositions of retro 2.5" HDD
This drive uses the ancient IDE interface
HDD like this one were common in notebook computers of that era. They were a bit less sensitive to shocks in comparison with the 3.5" counterparts due to physics, less mass on the heads means it's is less prone to slam into the HDD platters
