I have a brand new Toshiba DT01ACA100 1 TB Hard Drive. The computer picks it up in the Bios & it is shown in Disk Manager (Win 7) as an Unknown Not Initialized Disk. When I start Disk manager it wants to initialize it & gives me an option between MBR (master boot record) & GPT (guid partition table). When I select either option & click OK, it says Data Error (cyclic redundency check) & fails to initialize it.
I took out my other drive, running only the one disk & wanted to install a fresh windows 7 operating system on it, but it doesn't want to install onto the disk or even format or create partitions on it.
Is there a way to fix the disk without having to return it to the vendor & get a new one?
