Hitachi Deskstar 7K1000 1 TB SATA II Hard Drive Questions & Answers
SATA INSTALLATION TB HITACHI DESKSTAR
I would recommend you check the website for the latest "bios" (also known as firmware) for the motherboard. Or, see their support to verify you can install a drive this large. Check the Logical Block Addressing (lba) and make sure your bios has it enabled. Older bio's offer several options ..If you need further help, contact us at

If this is a new drive with nothing on it then just format it. Windows(R) will tell you what to do.
However, a 1TB drive will take ages to format if you haven't sub-divided it by partitioning* (It will take ages anyway but at least you can have a break after each partition).
If the drive already has data on it then it is likely that it is damaged. It is sometimes possible to plug it in to a different IDE or SATA connector which will allow it to be read. Sometimes a different computer can read the data.
Generally speaking, if the operating system says it's not formatted then the only thing to do is to format it.
* I find the best way to set up a drive is with a program called 'Gparted'. It is a Linux based application that runs from it's own bootable CD and partitions drives and formats them at the same time. It is much quicker than Windows(R).
GParted comes as a free, downloadable CD ISO. Google for it and instructions on it's use.
Hope this helps,

You should be able to buy an external USB drive (or thumb drive) at any electronics store.
You can connect a USB hard disk drive or USB
memory stick to your TV by using the USB inputs of
the TV. This feature allows you to play files stored in
a USB drive. 2.5" and 3.5" inch (hdd with external
power supply) external hard disk drives are supported.
IMPORTANT! You should back up your files before
making any connections to the TV set in order to
avoid any possible data loss. Manufacturer will not
be responsible for any file damage or data loss. It is
possible that certain types of USB devices (e.g. MP3
Players) or USB hard disk drives/memory sticks may
not be compatible with this TV.
Quickly plugging and unplugging USB devices, is a
very hazardous operation. Do not repeatedly quickly
plug and unplug the drive. This may cause physical
damage to the USB player and USB device itself. Do
not pull out USB module while playing a file.
Media Browser Menu
You can play photo, music, and movie files stored
on a USB disk by connecting it to your TV and using
the Media Browser screen. To do this, perform the
following: Connect a USB disk to one of the USB
inputs located on the side of the TV.
You can connect two USB devices to your TV. If both
USB devices include music, picture or video files, USB
selection OSD will be displayed on the screen. The
first USB device connected to the TV will be named
as USB Drive1. Select a device by using up or down arrows
and press OK

My Hitachi XL500 external hard drive is not showing anywhere on my computer. I also do not believe any power is getting through to my hard drive. Please help
buried in endless spam are you.
does it fail on 2nd PC????????????????????????????
but yes, I am the MVP of external HDD< I build my own.
Have over 5 here for Backups .
lots of causes, for sure bad drive, or missing drivers..
bad HW hardware or BAD software SW.
Missing 12vdc 2amp power pack>, lost or using wrong one.
when pack above does the HDD spin? usb connected to PC.
NO PC stated, NO OS stated, windows/chrome/Linux/android?
its at lease 10 years old , see posts back that far.
not good old HDD,this old.
sold during W7 era. 2009.
The drive has 3.5" HDD that needs lots of power (Amps)
to start up that big motor inside, and is first thing to learn .
2amps it needs, ok? so if pack is missing it will never startup
on any USB port, not rated for 20x standard USB load factors.
some laptops only do 0.1amps (100mA) and are useless to startup any hdd motor of any kind.
see why here.
and see a better extremal solution cheap.! $10
