I recently replaced 200Gb SATA HD (that died) with new 300Gb SATA drive.
Problems is HD LED in on all the time, When I access HD (boot up, copy,
ect.) LED turns bright (like it supposed to)
and should go off when I'm done accessing HD. It dims down, and I can still
hear HD heads moving.
I know nothing else is accessing HD (I got NAV2004, and AdWare ST running)
Also Active SMART (HD monitor) reports seek time performance one point down,
but overall status is OK
Any ideas?
Thanks.
