NBT evo hw3.2 Hard Drive Replacement

Posting this because I ran into and issue where my hard drive failed and there was no info available online.

while driving the car for 7hrs straight with the heat on my original toshiba hard drive developed some type of fault and kept resetting every 4 minutes like clock work.

replacing the hard drive is easy, remove the plastic cover by removing the 5 t-8 torx screws and remove the optical drive then remove the additional 4 t8 torx screws and push the hard drive towards the rear of the unit to disconnect it from the board connector.

when this is done bend the tab on the hard drive holder so the new sandisk drive fits and install the drive and close the unit back up.

this is the drive, sandisk, cheap and ssd type so its a bit faster with map data than the original toshiba drive.

at that point just plug your unit back in and reupload your map data and fsc's for good measure and youre good to go.

Did you do disk initialization? Or was it just plug and play?
