WD BLACK 500 GB failure.

djshadow · Jul 20, 2010

Here it is. I tryied something in raid configuration utility and this is what i get now: Disk Boot Failure, Insert System Disk and Press Enter.

What happened here ? I pray it won't be dead.

A new copy of OS will help me ?

***And AHCI or RAID mode is better for one hdd ?

Anybody, please. I need fast answer, can't w8 too much with this thing

insert your win7 dvd and see if it still shows up in the drive screen for install location

djshadow · Jul 20, 2010

Im trying now. It shows.

And I need to know what mode to use AHCI or RAID one ?

A new copy of the os has done the trick for me before so give it a try and do a full format.as for the mode I can't help but I don't think raid mode would do any good without a second drive

use IDE mode this should help you boot. if not the POSPCs method will work perfect

Use IDE mode. Raid is never for a single disk. You should look up the definition for it so you understand what it is before you try it and corrupt your MBR.

As I have understood it does not support IDE more. I tried it running it on IDE never booted up... whats ahci for then ?

IINexusII · Jul 20, 2010

yep. i say achi and a full reinstall on that drive.

AHCI its the native mode for sata drives

Thanks for help. I solved these things except with AHCI. Before it didnt load too. Now I explore how to instal the drivers of AFCI controler. :toast:

One more strange thing.

When I try to launch hd tune pro I get BSOD. Strange things . What could be that ?

*** Solved. Turned on ahci on registry and then in bios. Windows7 automaticaly found drivers and instaled them, after restart AHCI and hd tune works perfectly.
