Hi, the model WD5000BUCT works?

 

Hi, could I create partitions in a new WD7500BEVT 750 GB HDD by using a USB 2.0 to SATA cable to my Windows 7 desktop? And would I have to flash the hard drive once using the 500 GB sector and then using the 250 GB security sector on the other partition? Thanks for the helpful tutorial and I want to order the hard drive soon!!!

 

Hi!
I used this guide to hack a 500gb WD HDD several months ago using the HDDSS320.bin.
Now I'd like to upgrade my HDD with the new HDDSS500.bin to use it at full capacity.
Have I to use the undo bin first (that I lost), or can I reflash the HDD straight with the HDDSS500.bin?
Thx in advance!

 

Hey InsaneNutter,
I just tried this with a WD Blue WD5000LPVX drive, which is listed as compatible in the first post. But hddhackr failed, saying the sector checksum was wrong "<0000>". When I tried to backup sectors 16-22 in Windows using Hex Workshop, it reported that those seven sectors totaled 28KiB, not the 3KiB that was expected according to the 'alternate' guide.
So it seems that it has 4KiB sectors, not 512b. That being the case, I guess I'm SOL? Or is there hope yet?
Thanks,
Eli

 

I remember reading on another site that a 750 gb HDD and possibly 1 TB HDD can be used to its full potential of memory by flashing the HDDs twice (500 GB and 250 GB for the 750 GB) (500 GB and 500 GB for the 1 TB). Since you would partition the HDDs as such, you would flash one partition at a time. Would that work? Gonna buy a 750 GB HDD regardless because its the same price as a 500GB on Amazon lol.

 

Any options to change in the bios about the sata modes?

Nope. The same sectors are written over each time hddhackr is ran on a drive.

 

Thanks for addressing me, but nope, this is all with IDE mode set in the BIOS, with no other hard drives connected to the system. I can try it on a different motherboard and see if that makes a difference. Will keep this thread posted.

 

And works!

WD5000BUCT-63PUZY0

 

Okay, thanks for the information InsaneNutter and Rick!
