Hello friends i am working on seagate 500gb SATA 7200.12. In this series i have seen few cases lot of bad sectors are appearing . In fact this hdd was tried in three places and this may be the main cause for appearing more bad sectors. The hdd was detected in CMOS setup because initial 3000 sectors are good next rest of the hdd is continuous bad sectors.
Now i am trying to take image by connecting as external hdd(using usb to sata). But not showing in Ubantu (fdisk -l). Used seatools its detecting bad sectors and repairing bad sectors without loosing the data but at a time only 100 sectors max. Then i tried Mhdd and Hddscan but unable to restore the bad sectors completely. My doubt is now is there any chance to take image if yes on which operating system . Sorry for the poor English.
