-Spazmatic- Posted June 11, 2008 Report Share Posted June 11, 2008 I have a hard drive that a girl gave me to see if I could get anything off of it, because it stopped working in her computer. I have an external setup so I set up the HDD and my computer sees that there is a HDD connected, and it recognizes what kind and all that, installs drivers, and says it's ready to use, but then I can't find it in My Computer and my computer becomes very slow until I unplug that HDD.I have tried all sorts of jumper settings, (it has 16 settings) and I haven't found one that works.Is this drive truly dead?The HDD is an IBM Deskstar (deathstar, I know) 07N6654.

kizmut Posted June 11, 2008 Report Share Posted June 11, 2008 Ahh the good old IBM "deathstar"Look to see if any partitions are recognized in Disk Management. If it is external CS or Master pins should work. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
