    I just had a certified Apple service center install a WD 250GB Scorpio drive in my 2.2 GHz MBP (they were opening it anyway to check out the screen hinges). I just got it back, but when trying to install OS X the HDD doesn't appear in either the installer nor Disk Utility! The weird thing is, I can hear the drive revving up when I start the computer, so it must be connected.

    Any suggestions?!
