The second version works with 1TB drives but will brick 500GB drives. Probably no need to flash yours.

MY bad~*looked at the wrong model >_>

1) Are u using the "MooseDT-SD1A-3D4D-16-32MB.ISO" Firmware?
2) Is your BIOS able to detect your Harddisk?
3) Option "S)" able to detect your Harddisk? and confirm is St31000340AS? Firmware version Correct?

if all above condition meet, they should be no problem...
*
1- using that particular firmware...
2 - bios oso can detect i still can access it in windows too...
3 - nvr tried @_@" and confirm right version hmm.gif

should i really try that "S" option?
