Have you tried connecting it to a different computer to verify that the
drive isn't defective? Most of these external drives don't require formatting prior to use. Any time I connect an external drive or flash memory and it claims it needs formatting prior to use I become concerned that the drive/flash memory is defective and more often than not I'm right. :-) -- Richard G.

This is most likely a BIOS problem.
Make sure you have the latest BIOS for your system. Also check to see what kind of access the BIOS is using for your new drive (AHCI, IDE, EHCI). If you switch to IDE, you might get past this problem, but lose some benefits of the SATA interface. "2aider" wrote in message ...
