The 5a program for HIT HDD

Someone may have this error condition: After load from HDD, it could be “Ready” status, but when we want to save the modules or do some operations with the drive, the status would show “5a”, and all modules show “read error” or the program may hang. As the follow picture:


The reason is some of the modules or the PCB has problem, it may cause the program stop and hang.

How to solve it:

Load the HDD from file and choose the button “by single sector” that the program will read the modules one by one. It could avoid the 5a problem furthest:


Then we can check the problem in modules, as follow, we can see the RSVD module was broken, so find another donor FW and upload it. The driver would be ok.
