HDD identification and drivers

[AsianBatman]

I want to update my hdd drivers, but i dont know how to identify them without taking them out, is there a software to identify what hdd it is?

Try looking at your signature. If the information is correct, then you can simply research it on the Western Digital site and get the model number... but hard drives don't use drivers. They are nothing more than a means to store data. Windows dictates how that data is stored and utilized. The only other things you might consider is whether there is a new firmware for that hard drive (I don't think there is anything out at the moment) and to make sure your mainboard drivers are up to date since they control the IDE channels themselves.
