[thread=921544]Hard Drive model numbers deciphered[/thread] Locked
If you're looking at a dead drive's label and want to know what exactly it is, or are having trouble telling SKUs apart before you buy, look here. - DL

As always, check ANSWERS first and see if you can find the info you need right away, rather than posting and having to wait for a response from another member. Instant gratification, or at least instant solution :)

Also, Vertigo Acid has volunteered to compile SCSI Hard Drive model information. When he finishes that pretty large project, it will be added to the hard drive model number deciphering thread.
 
Today, I have placed the Ultimate Boot CD at the top of the ANSWERS Sticky:

The UltimateBootCD is a tool every [H]'er should have. There are numerous hard disk and file system diagnostic/recovery tools on it. If the UBCD does not solve your problem, it will at least get you to the bottom of it. There is a version designed with more powerful Windows tools on it, here. - DL

It is at the top for a reason. The numerous powerful tools on it are valuable assistance in troubleshooting storage related problems. Every [H]'er that is truly [H]ard will have a copy of it.
