There’re many new hard drives with newer and higher firmware security level and data recovery engineers couldn’t read and write ROM directly by the existing firmware repair tools.

This article will introduce the easiest method and tools to read and write rom from these new locked drives such as the Western Digital SMR hard drives and new Seagate FW-EB01 hard drives.

This tool is called HDD ROM Programming Clip Adapter and it is working perfectly together with RUS V5000 hdd programmer.

01: No need to remove PCB;
02: No need to remove ROM chip.

HDD ROM Programming Clip Adapter Package contains the following adapters:
