You are correct ps355528. It was actually in the middle of a transfer but I clicked cancel and even though the window exited and disappeared I don't think the hard drive fully cancelled. If you get what I mean. So then I tried to reformat it and it won't but it did manage to delete everything on it. Do I just need to throw it away? I know a computer guy in my town but if I could fix it myself that is what I was going to do. I keep hearing the sata port method which I'm willing to try but i have to find a sata cable since I don't think I have one with the desktop we have. Also would sata ports be right on the outside of the modem or inside the modem?
