[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1302217, member: 46727"] The new hard drive has to be prepared in order to install the operating system on it. And yes, after placing the new hard drive in the machine, you need to boot with your original install DVD, select the language, and then go to the top menu and select "Utilities", "Disk Utility" in order to format the drive. What version of OS X do you have and tell us about your machine? What year and model of MacBook Pro is it? [/QUOTE]

How many occurrences of a n-u-m-b-e-r between "d" and "f" in this example...(sdgs6ngklu3gd#f9%)?
