May 17, 200917 yr Hey allHas anyone had experience with a MDT 500GB? drive works intermittently (eg. every second time its powered up it doesn't want to be recognized)I checked all the usual stuff(virusses, bad sectors, disk checking utilities) nothing funny reported. and there aren't funny noises when it starts up..Anyone now where I can get a firmware update for it?Model - MD05000-BQGW-ROAny one with some suggestions?Thanks
May 17, 200917 yr MDT doesn't make any drives, it merely resells drives from other manufacturers -- those it gets for dirt cheap like refurbished drives. Not surprising at all if it dies on you. I sure wouldn't put my data on this drive.
May 17, 200917 yr Author buddy of mine brought it to me..thought it looked it a bit dodgy, but anyhow..Do you know if there's anyway to tell who actually made the drive??Thanks!
May 18, 200917 yr If you post the picture, but as far as I can see those are WD drives with a white label on it, refurbished that is.
