etting started
For details about preparation for work with the utility and HDD connection to the suite, please refer to
chapter 3 of
Seagate documentation, part 1
.
Attention!
HDD ROM contains adaptive data. Check to ensure that the controller board matches the heads and disk
assembly (HDA). To do that, you can even use a board disconnected from HDA, which returns HDD ID information
via the ATA interface anyway. Having read HDD ID, you can compare the model and its serial number to the
information printed on HDA label. If the returned HDD ID contains a template, use the tools for operations with ROM
described further to obtain the serial number from it
(see section 7.2, Work with Flash ROM image file and Correction
.
In addition, in cases when the terminal command mode is available you can extract the serial
number by sending the [Ctrl]+[R] and [Ctrl]+[L] pair of commands; the HDD will respond then with a report similar to
the following:

Attention!
Please keep in mind that if a non-native controller board is used, then any operation involving recording to
disk surface may cause irreversible corruption of service data resulting in inaccessibility of user data.

aunching the utility
As soon as the utility starts, it displays the drive family selection dialog. The family is recognized automatically based
on the HDD ID information. If a drive returns no HDD ID (permanent BSY, ABR response in case of firmware
damage), you can select its family manually.
