I am experiencing the bridge board failure of the Symwave Chip 6316 along with countless others. I’ve removed the drive from the case and taken the bridge board off and wanted to just ignore the data that’s on the drive as I don’t need it and wanted to just install as a secondary HDD internally on a windows 7 / 64 Bit tower. Can this be done with not much difficulty, or has WD encrypted it to the point it can’t be used this way? Can you offer steps to go about partitions/Formatting for it to be used as just storage only, no OS will be installed on it.
I was thinking of cloning my 1 TB Windows 7 64 bit HDD that’s in my tower onto this drive but not sure how easy a task this, I’ve heard it can be done using Macrium Reflect 7 Free Edition, can anyone confirm this for me?
