Re: Hard drive disappearing in Windows

sounds like you have a bum drive to me ????? have you tried wiping the drive with a free program like Killdisk; then use the hard drive manufacturers drive set-up utility to partiton and format the drive .............. I dont like using windows tool for partitiong and formatting for numerous reasons ............ they are "easy to use" but you pay a trade off
