Your Seagate HDD is probably fine, The ASRock N68C motherboard is an old and bad design that i'm pretty sure WON'T support HDD of more than 1TB...The best solution will be to get a new cheap mobo from Asus, Gigabyte or MSI...There are nice Asus AM3+ motherboards that are cheap and support your currently AM3 CPU (and also support the new AMD FX)
