Hi there, I was hoping for a little help if possible please?? 🙂
I have a Sata samsung 250gb hard drive. Trouble is i have had problems using it as my primary Hard Drive since the beginning.
Recently upgraded the HD with a new one Western Digital (much better!) and used the Samsung drive in caddy as external usb drive.
The problem is that after about 1 day of use the External Hd crashes and in short, all the data is not recoverable (Arrgh!).
I reformatted and and gonig to repir with HD regenerator.
But here is the problem! When ever i connect this Samsung HD via Sata internally in my desktop it will not boot past the Bios Post screen and will just hang for ever. I tried systematically removing all other drives and devices until ONLY the Samsung drive is connected internally, still it hangs???
Please NOTE that in bios it does recognise the drive is attached just as it does if it is connected Externally via USB. I really want to get this drive worknig again, just as a secondary drive in my dekstop. If anybody has any ideas why it not booting or what can be done that would be greatly appreciate .
Kind Regards
Tom 😀
