What to do with HDD ST?

Question

Hard disks

Hello, I found an ST hard drive in the bins. Half of the disc is good and half is red. How to be with him how to reanimate?

Answer 1

Reanimate - no way.
Create a partition at the beginning of the 400 gig disk, and don't store any important information on it.

Answer 2

If indeed the first half is normal, then the simplest thing is to limit the maximum capacity through HPA. But it is unlikely that he will live happily ever after. It's Seagate :)

Answer 3

I changed my mind about disassembling, I decided to try to restore it more or less, but how long will it live with such an indicator under the file dump.
