Hi,
So I wanted to format this new HD before installing it in my PC so I plugged it to a sata-usb adaptor.
The light on the adaptor is turning on, but the hd isn't spinning at all.
I read that this could mean it is defective. Anything I could try? I've heard about freezing it, but I'm not sure I really want to try that, lol.
I bought this on ebay and I don't want to leave bad feedback without be assured that it's indeed defective.
Thanks
