Hard Disk Problems

The hard disk drive does not work or is not recognizable

If you had just performed a hard disk upgrade, make sure the hard drive connector is not loose and the hard disk drive is also correctly seated. Remove it and reinsert it firmly, and restart your PC.

The new HDD may need to be partitioned and reformatted. O/S and drivers will need to be re-installed as well.

Check the hard disk indicator LED. When you access a file, the LED lamp should light up momentarily.

The new HDD may be defective or is not compatible.

If your computer has been subjected to static electricity or physical shock, you may have damaged the disk drive.
