[OT] - Hard discs...

As most of you are aware, I have a number of drives >128Gb and haven't
had
any problems formatting any of them previosly but just wondering if anyone
else has any ideas...

I have two new Western Digital 160Gb drives bought about ten days ago from
BigPockets - both are the same model however one only recognises as 128Gb
whilst the second recognises as 160Gb. I've tried a number of motherboards
under both Windows XP / MCE and Linux (Ubuntu) and the results are
consistent. I have also tried the drive under Mac OSX and I get the same.

Anyone got any further suggestions to try before the first drive gets RMA'd
back to BigPockets? Seems bloody weird to me.

Phil
