Questions & Comments

Nice auction. Watching.

On a side note:
Most Windows OS will require re-activation if the hard drive it booted in a PC with different hardware specs than the previous. Just saying.

I don't think that's accurate. Ive exchanged hdds multiple times on different systems and never had an issue.

If you move the old HDD to another machine, most likely you will have to re-activate Windows. The OS will not recognize the new hardware, and remember, all the drivers and such are still from the old machine. Meaning that it might not even show unless you've taken the liberty to keep the original SVGA Plug and Plug as the video driver. I'm not saying it won't work. I'm just saying there's a slim chance it won't and a decent chance it will require a bit of troubleshooting to get everything running smooth. Definitely wouldn't have any Ill thoughts about this auction because of something as silly as that. I was just putting it out there.

I can see needing drivers for a new machine but like I said Ive done it before multiple times without any issues such as needing new activation. Perhaps your experience differs, I'm not an IT guy, but, it has been my personal experience multiple times, NO activation needed.

Thanks for your input though. :)

Mar 12th, 2012 at 9:25:54 AM PDT by

I think its IDE. Its the older connection.

It's a Samsung SpinPoint 80GB- -5400RPM- -PATA (IDE, UDMA, EIDE) HDD Drive. It has all Drivers & OS installed correct? Thanks for your listing!

both of you are right. some you can do without re activation and some you do. if you have the product code - just be on the safe side i would send the product code with it.
