Hi guys. Sorry for slamming this into you even this is my first post, but i had enough with the WD SUPPORT and HDAT technical staff. I wrote it so many times that I don't know how to put it in a different manner so that someone may help me. I made a mistake by enabling PM2 on both a Hitachi and a WD drive. Ofcourse as you may know, my drives became undetectable until I used that compiled iso with linux set of commands (turn_off_poweron_in_standby-1.01.iso). Hitachi drive is ok now but the damn WD one still needs booting with this iso. So it's a WD bug. They won't provide a fix, telling me so many crap you won't believe it how low they go to exculpate themselves. I haven't been able to find a firmware or a second hand PCB for this model. Is there any affordable fix for this issue? Thank you kindly.
