Prevent Linux Probing for Partitions

How to avoid any type of partition probes when a HDD is detected by a booted up system, in a way that it only detects basic drive features as model, sector size and capacity, consequently creating just one device file as /dev/sda? Is it a libata/kernel issue? It's about a data recovery experience with a damaged HDD that sectors corresponding to partition table should not being read. I'm not talking about auto-mount, it's already disabled. The sectors linked to partitions are on a scratched area. When heads pass over there, drive crashes. This is what happens when a healthy HDD is attached: **Dmesg Output** Oct 13 16:21:42 wks-01 kernel: [ 906.796660] sd 8:0:0:0: [sdb] 1953525167 512-byte logical blocks: (1.00 TB/931 GiB)...
