ok. just come to fit this and it looks like i am missing a few bits. looks like i need 4 screws to mount it and a red data cable to go from it to the mother board.
the other thing is the power cable has the wrong end on it if that makes sense?
lookind at the existing hard drive the power cable plugs in on the far right hand side if your looking at the back of the hard drive, then the data cable a bit further a long,then there is another set of pins the same type as the data cable connection next to that. the new hard drive only has the data connection for the red cable and the other set of pins next to it. there is nothing at the far right hand side for the existing power cable to plug into?

edited to say just found a data cable and power adaptor cable on ebay for a couple of quid.
it also says on the hard drice it doesn't need switching between slave and master?

can you send me your landline number as well please dunc.

cheers.
