However... HDToolBox doesn't want to play at all. When i try and read the physical data from disc I get all but correct values.
There is no "physical data" concerning a hdd nowadays. All that really matters is the total number of blocks. The other values are calculated internaly to match the needs (about 1MB per cylinder). Check that the total number of blocks is correct and you can be happy.
If the number is not correct, change the values for tracks, heads and sectors until it is correct. Remember that you need about 1000 blocks per cylinder to fit the RDB into the first two cylinders.
