Is the WD3200AAKS an Advanced Format drive?

[PCOECSI]

I need to know if the WD3200AAKS is an Adnanced Format drive, and if so how to download the alingment software. When I try to download the software the page tells me the download is restricted registration. I cloned the drive using a Diskology DiskJocky Pro. The OS is Windows XP Pro.

Register your drive serial number and you will be able to download the software...

Um... Not sure what you mean, I registered the drive using the form... It still does not give me access. What is Awopero instructed? You still have not ansered the question " Is the WD3200AAKS an Advanced Format drive?" yes or no
