You don't have a Firmware issue. Rotational Scarring only occurs through 
impacting the head sliders onto the platters while the platters rotate.

Commonly known as a "head crash".

To recover any data off those drives, they need to be opened in a 
cleanroom, thoroughly cleaned of any debris, and either the headstack 
replaced or the platters transplanted into a known good drive of the 
some manufacturing batch.
