Brand new as it's a rma swap.

In the end i conected it, windows found the ide to usb thing, saw what hd it was but thats it.

I then went into computre management, to the disc section, it showed it and was offline, so switched it online, named it, partisioned it and formatted it and then when into my computre and set the autoplay feature and it works now.

Pretty happy that i found it my self in the end....not much info about on this.

Thanks for your response guys
