Hi,
I bought a brand new Toshiba USB 3.0 & 2.0 1.0 TB drive online but can't get it going.
I put the drive in and it goes through the driver installation okay and says 'Driver installed successfully'.
Then I go into 'Administrative tools', then 'Computer Management' then 'Disk Management'. Then I right-click the unknown Disk drive (which is the USB drive), and select 'initialize' as it says it's not initialized. I select 'MBR' for Master Boot Record, then hit 'ok' but it says 'The Device is not ready' and that's as far as I get.
Am I doing anything wrong? Can anyone assist?
I'm running Windows 7.
Many thanks in advance for any help and HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Ana
