    Have you read the service handbook section on HDD replacement? =^..^=
    If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
    1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
    2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
    3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
    4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
    5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

        You might not have noticed, but I don't hand out free manuals. There are plenty of places that sell electronic manuals. Sadly to say, our local purveyor of manuals has passed away.

        You'll have no trouble finding another manual seller. =^..^=

          Passed away ? Really sad. I bought some test charts from him. I know some did not like him. I considered him a valuable asset for info..

            F101-4: Partition mount error (The HDD cannot be connected (mounted) caused by damage to the "/work" partition.)

            1. Turn the power of the equipment OFF and check the connection of the HDD.
            - Connector and harness check
            - Check if the connector pins of the HDD are bent.
            - Check if HDD for other equipment is not installed.
            - Check if SRAM for other equipment is not installed.

            2. If the error still occurs after step 1, perform the following.
            - Perform [3C] - [5] (Key Backup Restore) and check that each Key Status is "OK".
            - If not, recover the key (copy "SRAM Key Status" to "FROM Key Status" or vice versa).

            3. If the error persists after step 2, perform
            [5]+[C]+[POWER]→2. Recovery F/S→3. /work, and then restart the equipment.

            4. If the error persists after step 3, perform
            [5]+[C]+[POWER]→3. Initialize HDD→2. /work, and then restart the equipment.

            5. If the error still persists after step 4, perform the following.
            - Perform [3C] - [3] (Format HDD), and then install "System Software (HD data)" with [49] - [4].

                    Based on your SMART info screenshot, id c5 is 0 which normally no need to change HDD...What u need to do is perform 3C to format HDD and reinstall firmware...
