HI Folks,
My new WD 1 TB black seems to be DOA. When connected it is not being detected properly in BIOS. It is showing correct model but capacity as 0.00 MB. I had 2 other WD Green working excellently, but this one has failed. Tried different kind of trouble shooting using disk management tools with no progress.

Other folks also beware. Checked using google and Newegg there is 7% failure.
