It should work in the 500 as well. Maybe it was damaged in transit?

Edit: Some drives gets 'stuck' when the head moves too far (don't know if a bump in transit could do it?) and a gentle push on the head can often get it back into its working area. You could also try the drive from the A500 in the 1200 just to see if the mod is working.
