So the other day my external drive died ( the physical drive ) so i decided to remove it from the housing, and put in place a new drive ( actually a older 300GB drive i had internally ) So after putting it in the new caddy, i plugged the USB in, and my computer succesfully reads it, but i cant format it DISK MANAGEMENT, anytime i try to do something it says "THIS DEVICE IS WRITE PROTECTED"
Any suggestions? the drive was a 1TB HP Simplesave, and i put a 300GB Western digital Caviar black inside of the caddy. the drive inside was a standard Western digital 1TB GREEN you would find in any standard computer store.
