w/o the Hd, does your HU still working ?

 

If HU cannot start up w/o HD, it is pointless to replace the harddisk as the OS or HU programme is gone.

 

If HU can startup w HD, can worth a try to replace it.

good point there, noted with thanks. Was told that the HDD may be use for controlling the surround sound system of the mpv.

 

very true, no point replace it with another HDD that is blank with no OS in it....

bro, you check if your HU works without the hard disk. if everything works except when u try to press hard disk button then it may be purely a storage medium

simi lye?? [blush] care to elaborate?? [;)]

 

HDD got 2 types. One is IDE and another is SATA. IDE is the older generation of connection to the motherboard. Your HDD probably is those type if it's just 30GB. Go Sim Lim Sq and find. I think it's more expensive than SATA cos going obsolete already but you should get it to work on your computer. Max size is around 250GB or 500GB. You will need to reinstall the OS yourself though.

better check whether HDD itself has kee chia or not. if the HDD is fine then you just end up liao lui buy new one.
