Just got a 2Tb Seagate Harddrive from OCUK

Tried to install windows on it for a new build wont install
Won't convert to GPT in diskpart. Comes with a device I/O error.

Tried creating a partition in AOMEI and it came back with this.
Sorry, the current operation has been canceled!
Information Code: 202
Description:Failed to format NTFS due to too many bad clusters.

Disk Management wont let me partition / assign anything to it either.

Is it DOA?
