The Toshiba USB drive experienced read issues and slow access speeds, making the USB interface suboptimal for data recovery. We converted it to a compatible SATA PCB board with a similar controller to the one on the USB PCB board and transferred the ROM information to the SATA PCB.
In PC3000, the service area (firmware) was adjusted, and a head map was created due to one of the heads being weak; the drive also had bad sectors.
We cloned all user data, starting with the good heads and then with the weak head, resulting in successful data recovery.
Should you encounter data accessibility issues with your Toshiba or any other USB hard drive, please feel free to reach out to us for assistance.
