[QUOTE="dtravis7, post: 1060032, member: 8287"] What is the exact model of the new Samsung? Is it for sure HM640JI? I am wondering if since it's probably a SATA II drive, there is an issue between the drive and the SATA controller in the Macbook Pro. Exactly which MBP do you own? There was an issue like I mentioned above with some SATA 2 drives and the SATA controller in certain MBP's so need to know your exact model Macbook Pro. It might be a simple as a jumper on the Samsung if it's what I think it is going on. Edit: found this. [url]http://www.samsung.com/global/business/hdd/faqView.do?b2b_bbs_msg_id=126[/url] They use a patch instead of a jumper if that is your issue. [/QUOTE]
