Hey od5kb53,

Is this the boot drive, secondary internal drive, or an external drive?

Hey Larry
Thank you for your quick reply, it was an boot drive, wanted to use it as an external one and got this error.

- Is the drive from another Laptop / Desktop? Or have you upgraded the drive and using the old drive as an external drive?
- Do you have the drive installed in a USB Enclosure or adapter?
- Have you formatted the drive to remove Windows/Linux first before trying to use it?

Firmware can be found here Samsung hm641ji  5th one down

I see you have a caution on that drive, hope that's a firmware issue and not a failing drive.
