New equipment (yes) but does not work in a PC by installing an operating system? Formatting the hard drive is not possible to install a new operating system (As family XP or even Windows 98) generates significant defects causing impossibility of continuing (C :) in the continuity of the Installation ... (I do not know why) It can not therefore be used to renovate a PC (...) So I bought used this drive for nothing! .. The disappointed customer of this purchase.
