Seagate 7200.11 Bios error

[chuck kingery]

I have what I believed to be the normal bios problem with a Seagate
OEM drive (ST3750630AS). It wasn't recognized by the system and
stayed BSY on Deepspar. I was running through the documented process
and received the following error:

F3 T>/2

F3 2>Z

Spin Down Complete
Elapsed Time 0.143 msecs
F3 2>U

Error 1009 DETSEC 00006008
Spin Error
Elapsed Time 31.530 secs
R/W Status 2 R/W Error 84150180


From here I ran a cross a trick from a google search where you wait
until the drive spins down before "Z" is entered which seemed to
work... I received the following:

F3 T>/2

F3 2>Z

Spin Down Complete
Elapsed Time 0.144 msecs
{Remove insulator card}
F3 2>U

Spin Up Complete
Elapsed Time 10.165 secs
F3 2>

So now I proceed with power down, wait, power on and I don't get the
chance to type (ctrl-z) before I start seeing:

LED:000000CC FAddr:00249F05
LED:000000CC FAddr:00249F05
LED:000000CC FAddr:00249F05

I did try and cheat a bit on the five second wait and can get a (ctrl-
z) in and the /1... even the N1 but the errors start again with the
same code. Any ideas on where I can go from here?... or more likely
what I missed :)

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Question withdrawn... it would appear that the power down of the drive
after the U command was unnecessary. I went directly into /1 then N1,
then did the power off and on and everything worked fine. I executed
the m0,2,2,0,0,0,0,22 and I am copying data off the drive now :)
