Is this a hard drive in a computer, or an external one?
Is it new or used?
What computer are you attaching it to (operating system, etc)?1. Have you tried to Google the answer?
2. If you were in the other person's shoes, how would you react?
3. Do you want a quick answer or better understanding?0 -
