Hello, I could be succesful copying the damage disk content to a new disk with dd bs=512 conf=noerror,sync if=/dev/da6 of=/dev/da5 da5 is the new disk and it is an extarnal cabinet disc 80 PIN SCSI SCA then I did sunlabel da6 > /tmp/label sunlabel -R da5 /tmp/label everything went perfect. I took the new disk out form cabinet and I open my Sun Blade 1000 to replace the boot disk... what a surprise!!! the 80 PIN SCA interface won't fit in the internal socket!! the inside boot disk socket is different I do not know even the name of the socket SCSI interface... what kind of SCSI disk should I look for to replace the internal sun blade 1000 disks ? thank you very much Rick
