Hey all. Just got a brand new 1TB hitachi HD from PCW and installed and it
seems to be OK and everything works fine on it. Apart from one thing: it is
always accessing. This happened even before anything was installed at all
and I was hoping it would go away after a driver update and turning off any
background stuff or the indexing service. It's still the same though and it
will 'work' regardless.

Does anyone have any ideas or is it a back to the shop job?

Thank all

Is this HD an internal one? If so then perhaps the connections may not be
correct and so the lights are always on.

If it is an external one then clearly it is faulty.

How much RAM do you have "in" this PC?
