johnb35 Administrator Staff member Jun 15, 2017 #2 Can you hear the drive spinning? Is the sata data cable attached?
D Desmond56 New Member Jun 15, 2017 #4 Yes and when I hit delete on power up and go to boot it is visible. Defiantly SPINNING.
johnb35 Administrator Staff member Jun 15, 2017 #5 I would say something happened when you formatted partitioned it from a different system. You need to totally wipe the drive now using killdisk or dban.
