Hi all

So I've been having some fun wit a 3.5" WD 1TB HDD that for some unknown reason, decided to go RAW on me (possibly covid related)

It was partitioned into Drive E & F of equal capacity. ...

Thanks Wainui ... I'll let you know what the outcome is. That said, I'm pretty sure it's a hardware problem and a new mobo, even though well out of date, is going to be the best solution for me...
