sounds like the hard drive is not compatible , this can happen
, something to do with the spin up time on the drive if i remember right . google it , i'm pretty sure you're stuffed if this is the problem its a case of send the drive back and try another one.

edit , have you tried this ??
1. Press and hold LEFT+RIGHT while switching on at mains
2. When ring lights, release LEFT+RIGHT and press SELECT
3. Ring will cycle backwards while HDD is quick formatted
4. Green PLAY lights for success, red RECORD for failure
5. Box returns to standby - wait 2 minutes, then use remote or front panel button to "wake it up"
