Error message when formating a sata3 hdd
Hi,
I've bought a new HDD Seagate 1Tb, but i didin't notice that it was Sata 3. Ok, seeing that i can place it on sata 2 connectors. The problem is that when i format it in the "fast formatting" way it formats it all right or it looks like to be formatted. Now, when i try to format it not using the "fast way" it seems to format it but windows shows this message: "Disk Formatting not Successfully" What could be doing that? This HDD will be used for storing data, not for system.
One more thing i've found weird is that i can access the disk, so it's been recognized by the system.
Win 7 ultimate - 32
