no manual or software but i reckon its a pretty good deal.

Glad you managed to sort it Dave,at least you can look forward to a Merry Xmas now trying to fill yourself with mince pies ,turkey and booze and your drive with lots of films and stuff ;)

How long did it take to format the drive this time by the way ?

it only took just over 40 minutes. i was expecting more like 2 or 3 hours. fingers crossed this one lasts more than a few months.
