I have a problem with WD 1.5TB EARS green already. Problem so severe, i alrd unplug it frm my PC.

The thing is, i align it before when im using Winxp, then lately i switch to win7 32bit (maybe unrelated). Initially there will be hanging when access program from the hdd, then later everytime during bootup will prompt to check for consistencies. Even after scan, few boot is okay... happens again.

Do you think a clean format can helps?

I'm wondering if my HDD also having the same problem.

I'm having :
1 X 40GB IDE
1 X 160GB
1 X 500GB
1 X 1TB

My 1TB can't be formatted and I don't know why lol. Already RMA once and still having same problem. Could it be my motherboard couldn't support that much hard disk or it's power problem?

Previously i had:

1 x 40GB IDE Maxtor
1 X 80GB IDE Maxtor
1 X 500GB Seagate
1 X 1TB WD green
1 X 1.5TB WD green

Initially 80 GB IDE like problematic, thought its old so i mirror backup to 1.5TB to use... so left 4 HDD. Then now, the 1.5TB and 1TB acting weird. I already dismantle my pc (since less use after got laptop). Will backup one by one the hdd BEFORE i go for warranty. Already bought 3.5" ext case but waiting hdd price drop not worth buy now sad.gif
