K

Kloppstock

I have a hardrive( Maxtor 6Y200P0) wich have got corrupted and ba
segments.(this seme to be a common problem with Maxtor drives)

Im almmost sure this drive have psychical damaged clusters,
cause i have tested alot & alots of tools that should fix this ha
failing in repairing this damaged clusters and segments

this includes Maxtor official PoweMax v 1.21, wich fails to complet
the surface test.

i have got an Error Diagnostic Code=de676679

a code with a 8 numeral should indicate that a Maxtor Drive drive i
broken,and is in need of replacement. thats all i know

where should i send this code for a real analyz?, cant find anything o


Maxtor Website,

Another question, there is allso an option to do a Low ore High

level formatation of the drive. I have heard that this could fi
corrupted

segments,

If so,this must only be possible on logical damaged hardrives, no
psycial

damaged drives right? i have waiting with reformatation

cause im unsure what type damage the drive have, and this is my last

alternative to do.? should i do a low/high level formatation anyway?

Any advice is highly appritiate
