What are you going to do with the faulty 500GB??

 

[T345]

Double post
ignore

 

[T345]

Maybe send it back and get a replacement, I see you are watching my activities
I still need to test the 2.5".
I might sell one to my brothers friend as he needs a 250gb

Make sure when you run the HDtune you do a full test and not just a quick one.

 

[T345]

Yep, the 500gb has loads of errors, going to test some more soon (tommorow.) will it be quicker on a more powerful computer, as my laptop is not that good (single core celeron)

I don't think it makes any diffrence.

Although it would be quicker with ESATA or internal SATA. Rather than USB.

 

[T345]

Ok, I will use USB as it is most conveniant
Currently testing 80gb IDE
good so far
Also I am about to order the screwdriver

 

[T345]

Maxtor 4R080L0

I will add more as I test them

 

[T345]

I can't test today as my uncle is here, will test at night
I am so happy with that awesome guy
Also, should I buy the shinobi mesh strips, stealth bay and logo?

If you want. It's not gonna make it 'go faster'. Just makes it better looking.

I know, I'm going to buy anyway though.
