this is all french to me, i aint got a clue what to do!!!!
when i put the new drive in and switched the console on it was saying that i had to insert the latest update or something like that! what do i have to do to the new drive for the playstation to recognize it, I dont get the format hard drive screen like you are supposed to! I am getting really pi$$ed off with this now and the whole lot will be going out of the window in a minute..........it wouldnt be the first time thats happened!
is this the type of enclosure you are on about?

Somebody please help!
Its ok i have worked it out myself, i have lost all my game saves and stuff but not too bothered as the console is new and nothing much was saved, i downloaded the latest software from the playstation site put it on a disc, put the new 160GB hard drive in, put in the disc i had burned and hey presto, so far so good, just waiting for it to be formatted, why didnt i think of this before, if this works i can cancel the enclosure i have ordered, or maybe not cause now i have a spare 40G hard drive i could use for something.
