Default Re: Trouble Upgrading HDD on 4100

The hd should be set to master or single drive. Cable select will not work on a 4100.

If you mb has not been remarked to a 003, it probably has not been done. You need to locate FB1 & FB2 on the MB. It requires rework at the micro surface mounted componets. They did these at the factory not in the field. So unless you have all of the special equipement for doing this it may be very difficult.

I do not know what you are using for a browser but no one has reported any problems in the past, and I mean world wide. We get users scattered all of the world seeking help. The photos are hosted on this site, and are in jpeg format.

Are you using the SnapOS or Dell's? and what OS version?

The WD drives are fine. The 4100 can use them with out any problem on a good unit. The early 1000 and 2000 models had problem with some of the interfaces.
