DE & Long File Paths

It has been over 7 years since I first got MRT and in all these years, they have yet to fix a simple issue of their adding a long string of text into a folder that they insist on creating in order to save the selected data into. So, rather than just save Root or, better yet, just the selected conten...

Re: Learning ASM

I haven't written Assembly code since the mid 90's. Can't say that I miss it, though it was the one course that landed me an A+ in computer science.

Re: Kahuna_5400 ST500LM000

The SSD cache is toast on the patient board. It is just an odd duckling model where things just don't work like they should when writing the ROM to a donor board. In communicating with peers, it seems that I need a board that already has the same firmware on it, though I'm not convinced that it will...

Kahuna_5400 ST500LM000

Model: ST500LM000
PN: 1EJ162-174
SN: W76
FW: LIM2

Re: This makes no sense but is it true?

My basic understanding is that a sector in the g-list has already been remapped for LBA use. If you clear the g-list, it simply puts those bad sectors back into "available" circulation for the next remapping that might be needed. I can't see low a LLF would make a difference, other than po...
