Last time I just help my friend change his harddisk to 7200RPM 320GB ~
Surprise!! The harddisk can't get use, it's 15" MBP ~
It show cannot allocate the memory, can't even format ~

BUT

My Macbook white can use @@

BTW, the harddisk brand is Hitachi, taken out from his previous DELL Studio notebook.

some 7200rpm drives got this extra feature to protect the HDD...something like shock protection. the MBP already has this built-in called Sudden Motion Sensor. so SMS will clash with the HDD's shock protection, making the HDD useless.

if i recall correctly there's already a fix for this, that's y u can use now

Any solution to let MBP use the harddisk?
