Hey guys, so i just got this HDD (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822148142) For my moms dell. Plugged in SATA to mobo and HDD, and then the Power connector. Booted it up, and it went to vista, and didnt show up in the Hard Disk location. Turned off, booted again, and saw that the bios recognized it. Restarted, and now with the HDD in, it hangs at the bios boot screen and the HDD makes a bomb like ticking noise.... whats going on here?

Thanks

edit: Segate, not Western Digital

As long as it don't get to 0 your good.

Honestly don't know besides that :mad:
 
Quite. You seemed to have posted a link to a Seagate Barracuda drive, when you are mentioning a Western Digital drive. Which one is it? lol
