Hey

Will someone please advise me as to the problem I'm having.
So I took the 320GB HDD from a faulty laptop, the drive is fine it works well on a pc etc.
I even formatted it using the command prompt route removing the old recovery partitions etc.
So its basically an empty drive now. But my Sony BDP S190 Bluray player that supports the reading of externals will not
pick it up. It picks up everything but this.

I doubt its the bluray player that's the problem, it feels as if something is up with this HDD. Maybe theres something I need to do.
Ive searched the net high and low but no solution.

I would love to use this for viewing Movies, series etc on the big screen tv.

Please assist me
Thanks in advance:)
