Unable to detect device type? HDD

Featured Replies

Good afternoon, 

 

I recently picked up a referb HDD and for some reason, the system can not read it, Here are the logs of what i am able to get. I wanted some opinions on if this is fixable or just a DOA drive. I plan on shipping it off tomorrow if it can not be fixed. Let me know what you think. 

 

When i go into Attrubutes, i get this error 

/dev/        Unable to detect device type

 

According to SMART i get this error. 
Use smartctl -h to get a usage summary

below is what i get when i run the command.

That looks like a bad disk, try swapping cables with another one to rule that out, if errors persist it's almost certainly the disk.

Thank you for the confirmation. Stinks the first disk i buy its DOA. Ill try a new cord but i don't think thats it, they was working with a lower TB HDD i was replacing.
