I have an imac 15" flat Panel, 700 MHz . After getting the flashing question mark, running or trying to run all the standard tests, (pram, Software Restore, disk repair, reinstall, kernel repairs) I never see the hard drive or volume.
Ran the Apple Hardware Test as I think I lost the Hard Drive...this is the feed back:
Airport- Passed
Logic Board - Passed
Mass Storage - Error Detected
Memory - Has Not been Run yet
Modem - Device Found
Video RAM - Has not been run yet
Error Code ata 1/6/8 HD: 2,0
More info:
In Disk Utility I can highlight the HD - Cannot do anything else but get info: here is the info:
Name - Maxtor Romulus
Type- Disk
Disk Identifier - disk0
Media Name - Maxtor ROMULUS Media
Media Type - Generic
Connection Type - Internal
Connection ID - Decive 0
Device Tree- mac-io/ata-4@1f000/@0;0
Writeable - yes
Ejectable - no
Mac OS 9 Drivers installed - no
Location - internal
Total Capacity - 0 bytes
SMART Status - Not Supported
Disk Number - 0
Partition Number - 0
Maybe this info will help someone to help me diagnose the issue? I think I can replace the HArd Drive myself, if I knew this was the problem and what I need to buy to replace.
THanks
