I recently got a Toshiba DT01ACA200 2TB

When I plug it into my pc windows gets stuck at the loading screen and will load for ever. I tried to switch out the sata cabled and different sata power connectors and cables. I got the drive to work normally on another pc but on my one it stops windows from working.

 

The disk is initialized as MBR.

I tried to unplug all other drives apart from the OS SSD.

 

I can RMA it but I do not think its the hard drive as it does work on other pc's

Checked and I made sure that the OS disk was top and that HDD was showing up.

Hmmm, tried reformatting it in a pc that it will boot in? might just be the mbr is set to active when it should be off.

I am a paid professional, but only when I am at work...and getting paid.
