Hi all,
any idea about how to force MHDD mark weak sectors as UNC (red and brown).
i'm thinking of changing the mhdd config but doesn't know which values to use.also doesn't know if ini file needs to be changed.
in between have tried MHDD,VICTORIA and VIVARD without success.

Hi,
thanks for the reply.
in fact i have already tried the above utility which consists of a combination of MHDD and VIVARD (nice job from the author) without success.
also no way to use pc3k v14 -need some adapters- as the drive in question is a seagate which is not supported without that.
drive is:
seagate barracuda 7200.7
80 gbytes
model ST380011A

Hi
Pc3k v14 does't support at all the seagate 7200.7 series...with or without the adapter.
Did u try erase with Victoria(dos version)?...it it very slow but it worked for me sometimes.

Hi,
i haven't tried it but will try it now.
i used the erase function of MHDD and VIVARD,as i think that the first one is most powerful.
