    For those who DIY PCs ....

    i have a question ...

    i bought a Maxtor 300gb SATA hdd to add on to my system and when i plugged it in .. my system wouldnt start up .. i thought my power supply wasnt enough to run all the components so i upped it from 400w to 450w and it still wouldnt start up

    i tried unplugging one of my older hdd and plug the new one in and it still wouldnt start up but when i changed it back to my original configuration its running fine ..

    is it possible that the new hard drive that i have is faulty cos it seems like it to me ...

      be sure you didn't plug it into the RAID SATA pin vs. Regular one. Check your Mobo Manual

          nope its not set under RAID .. i tried plugging the new drive into the same SATA connection that my older drive is using and it shuts the system down as well

              Do SATA drives have master/slave settings? Is that set correctly?

                  SATA drives are all set as master drive by default if im not wrong ... anyway it was a hdd fault ... one of the chip on the drive broke which was why it caused so much problems .. brought back to the store and had it replaced
