hi i don't know where to post so i am posting here pla help me

i recently picked up an official ps2 hdd, and it wont read in my pc, to dump games to, ive tried all manner of maxtor hdd *dim*(not sure if i said that right) settings and it wont read, ive formatted it twice with my ps2, hdloader detects it no problems, only thing is i can only install games via pc so this is an major inconvenience for me.


it wont detect in my comp when i go to hdd management, i read on other forums it atleast should detect it there, i recently low lvl formatted it. still no go, myabe its jumper settings, ive tried almost ever maxtor setting i can, with the soft plastic protector facing up i have the jumper horizontally top right, which works for all my other maxtors, but this one no go. thing is i can use any thiurd party hdd, no problems only the officail one is giving me problems. if i cant figure it out guess its going on ebay lol

is the hdd being detected in your PCs BIOS? if it gets detected there then jumpers are set properly. How did you format the hdd if it doesn't even get detected? Have you tried winhiip?
