Hello mate how you doin, dude i miss your thread about hot deals club house, now there is sub fourm for it but in your thread you and the other guys put many good deals links from other fourms for new and used items, can you made another thread for this in hot deals club house, like hot deals in other fourms or something like that, thanx a lot your thread was really useful.
I didn't want to make it 3 posts in a row to your thread and I thought of something else. It's possible that there's a problem with the drive's firmware and it acts normally until you try to write to reserved sectors like when creating a partition or MBR. I've never heard of firmware problems with hdd's, but I'm sure it must happen from time to time.
