No, you can't.

Very few drives even allow reading user zone sectors over TTL anyway. The purpose of that port is to service the drive, fix the firmware, etc.

I think you need to get the drive to a professional data recovery shop who can properly assess it.

Experimenting with old drive that spins but isn't recognized by bios.
I connected to its serial port (ground, Rx, & Tx). Trying to connect using Putty but no success.
Is there some way I can get R-Studio to scan it even if slow?
