Shamus_McFartfinger Posted May 2, 2009 Posted May 2, 2009 A good place to start would be to make sure that you're using an 80 wire IDE ribbon cable and not a 40 wire.
LIGHTNING UK! Posted May 2, 2009 Posted May 2, 2009 Is it too late to take that drive back?! What made you purchase it in the first place? Why didn't you go for one of the standard (and newer!) models that have proper support / firmware updates etc?
older than dirt Posted May 2, 2009 Author Posted May 2, 2009 (edited) to Shamus it looks like i'm using a 40 wire. Not sure if i can use an 80 wire. Is their a difference. I'm useing old optic plex gx110 p3. Can i use the 80 wire if so where can i get one (geek squad) or best buy .on the box it says that 80 wire ide cable is only need for 16x or higher dvd writing speed only burning at 4 or 2.4x speed=========================================================================== =========================================================================---- to Lighting PRICE didn't know that it was already three years old in the box,in the store were everything is new lol.they don't put that info on the outside .It shouldn't be to late to take back,Just bought yesterday at best buy.
