drive not ready...
Hi, this is for those who met the same errors
I just have this kind of problem; I was scared about a HD failure,
as many mails are talking about. Since it is an 8 months HD, I was
quite sure is was not a failure.
So I opened the beast and had a look:
it was simply the power supply connector of this HD, which was
a bit loosen, and, thus, giving a bad connection, especially
when the HD was working & vibrating hard...
I tighten the four circular connectors, and now its working perfectly.
As I seen, every other supply connectors where in this state
(might be all the tests I made, plugging & unplugging many times);
so before buying a new HD, check this :)
