laptop upgrade help
My brothers in laws laptop HDD died. We're in the process of replacing his dead.Before we bought a new HDD we made sure that the HDD was in fact dead. What I did was juts for giggles I plugged in an old PS3 hdd which is also a 2.5" SATA HDD. When I plugged in the PS3, it was detected just did not boot because there's no OS on it. So we proceeded to buy a new 500GB HDD and put it in. When we got it in the new HDD was not detected just like the dead stock HDD.
Am I missing a step here? Also to make this interesting, his internal disc drive is also dead so we had to buy an external disc drive.
Any advice or is there any steps that I am missing?
