SATA Hard Drive
« on: November 13, 2008, 08:49:01 AM »
Suddenly, my back up drive won't work and it's the worst time possible. I backed up all of my photography and digital work on it. I reinstalled Vista on my computer to clean it up and now back up won't work. Any ideas on how to get this thing spinning again? Or am I just plumb unlucky?

couldn't you just buy another drive (or use an old one that works) and tear it apart and put it back together again with the disk you want.
