[QUOTE="chscag, post: 804186, member: 46727"] That indicates the drive is probably defective - either won't spin up or the electronics are toast. You may need a new hard drive. Is this for an iMac or MacBook machine? If it's for a MacBook, replacing the hard drive is rather easy. Not so for a MacBook Pro and even more difficult for an iMac. Fortunately, hard drives are not an expensive item to replace if you can do it yourself. Regards. [/QUOTE]
