It doesn'y matter what you are gong to use the drive for, but it does matter what system you are installing it on.
What are your system specs ?

Understood, but we still need your system specs & OS, to advise you .... i.e. are you after an IDE or SATA drive and what size may depend on how old your PC is etc.

I see, the last option in Murf's possible diagnoses http://www.cybertechhelp.com/forums/...d.php?t=113563 is the only one you think is possible?
