I jz bought the 500gb one last 2 weeks ago sad.gif So far bios still detecting it BUT there are some problems which I'm not sure whether its caused by my HDD.

1. My CM Elite 334 Casing the HDD LIGHT won't light up,no blink or anything,I thought its the casing's problem but now...im not sure.. (Checked mobo manual all the wiring are correct..)

2. Sometimes (20%) that when I power up my PC reach the XP WELCOME screen,jammed there. Mouse can move but I have to press the Reset button and let it boot up again..Thought it was not enough power from my PSU but now...

My Rig is:
Intel Core2Quad Extreme QX6800
2x2gb DDR-800 RAM
Sapphire HD4850 512MB
500GB Seagate
LG DVD-rw
Core Contact Freezer
Cooler Master Extreme 550w

enought power anot?

Other than that x ada problems... please please people enlighten me! Just spend almost all my saving on getting this new rig =(
