Got an NEC 1300A 4x Dual DVD burner so dont need one of those
As I said earlier though im not too bothered about the drive cocking up as its still under warranty, Infact I was just about to send it back when the drive seems to have started working again
Before I can trust this disk to reliably store Data again I need to know if it is actually working or wether it just looks like it is. This is where the program im after comes in as an unstable trransfer speed is a sure sign of a faulty hard drive.
It actually appears now as though the drive had never been broken, it would seem that it was just a broken partition table causing all the problems though i have never seen this happen b4.
