thanks, the key is definitely on EEPROM, but i threw away the PCB... T_T will try the service-area, just want to confirm it is true not all model of that...

i only got the direct block to block copy of the original hdd because i fear i might to cause dmg to the original if i read on it too...

i finally got my original hdd back and plugin into sata, however i don't know how to dump SA from HDDsupertool, actually i don't even know which version i should...

[dumpmodules.zip](https://github.com/themaddoctor/linux-mybook-tools/files/3220047/dumpmodules.zip) done after running hddsupertool -> "VSC" -> "dump all modules". it ends with `prepare to read Command failed! sense_key=0x5 asc=0x21 ascq=0x4 error=0x0 count=0x0 lba=0x0 device=0x0 status=0x0 altstatus=0x0 command_status= 0x0...

Thanks anyway. So maybe for this model. The key only exist in the board rom... Is there anything i can try?

that controller board is forever lost.... i guess the only chance of getting those data back is waiting for the arrival of quantum computer. *sob*

were there any cases the key is stored there?
