Hello
I recently tried to upgrade the hard-drive in my macbook pro 2010 13". I backed up the old drive using SuperDuper to my external drive. I replaced the original internal hard-drive with my newly purchased Western Digital Scorpio blue 1Tb 5400rpm. I booted the macbook from my external hard-drive and opened up disk utility.
The macbook fails to recognize the disk at all, probably because it's not formatted correctly. I can't see the drive when I boot from the install disk either. I tried starting it up with a Windows 7 install cd but still couldn't see the internal drive (WD scorpio blue).
What should I do? I've tried every possible solution I can come up with so now I'm resorting to forum hoping that someone's sitting on the solution.
