Medium Error on Cheetah SCSI Drive ST336607LW

Hi there,

 

I am experiencing Medium Error on my SCSI ST336607LW (in Windows 2000 Server SP4).  These are the scan code:

SK 3h

ASC 31h

SCQ 0h

 

From what I read from the Seagate Q&A, the Medium Format was corrupted.  I cannot read the drive at all.

I rebuilt and booted up the server with a secondary IDE drive.  I can see the hardware (i.e., the SCSI disc in Device Manager), but I always fail on any disc test.

 

I followed some postings to try "Seatools Enterprise".  Inside Seatools Enterprise, I can see the drive information: model name, serial number, firmware number, etc. etc.  However, when I run the test, it stopped. Seatools reported "Fru Code 05" , what does it mean ?

 

Can any expert give me further idea to proceed?  I do not care about the disc, I just want to recover the data inside it.

 

Thanks in advance for any pointers.
