Hi,
I would like to ask if someone experince this problem on a Hard disc. I had a 320 GB WD Blue 3.5 Hard disc. When i plug on my PC BIOS detect it for a while and dis-appear. Luckily sometimes i can check it on a bootable CD or attach on other LINUX PC but for a while it will dis-appear. As if you try to access the HD it will disappear from OS system even in BIOS. This is the results when i check the HD on linux using Fdisk. To my surprise the 320GB detected as 2TB.. HOW come it become to 2TB.

the Disk Identifier change when i force to format it with fdisk option.. It means the disc is still accessible or something im missing..i already tried gparted or any tools related to HD or Filesystem (UBCD). But no success.
Maybe someone can give some ensights or opinion or any things that will help recover my HD or should i throw it on the garbage.
