Hello ,

The image file for the STM3500320AS hdd is bad ,   it's only 784kb and not 1.57mb.

i can't burn it.

Could you fix it plzzz.

Same here. Nero says "The entered block size does not correspond to the image length..... etc"

humm no reply for this post ...  is it possible that's the good file?

I'll try it tomorrow , but unfortunately I have 15 hdd like this lol I hope it will work for you

If not , you pay the recovery of the datas and give me 15 new hdd

I'm using ImgBurn to create the bootable cd.

It burns the iso okay, but upon booting it the screen reads "FreeDOS" and freezes forever...

More waiting....

I think it's a bad file .... If I don"t have a valid file tomorrow

I will try it with this file (don't know why but it can be burned with dvd decrypter), if it's not working thats not a problem seagate give us a new hdd it's on warranty lol

[sekin]

we can't make a mix with the old file and the new?

that's good to see that I am not alone with this darn hdd's lol

I booted up that ISO file in VMware (not with a burned CD) and it booted up fine (didn't upgrade firmware since I don't have the HDD with me). Odd. Did you guys try Nero?

I will be camping these forums till a good image comes up!

Bump for justice.

Hey Ant. I booted the image using VMware and Sun xVM VirtualBox.

The same behavior as booting it on my PC. 

Freezes upon displaying "FreeDOS" on the screen.
