So, umm.....how can I hint at the question without asking it.... ;D That sucks massively. I have a hard drive from '96 that I used up until last christmas in another computer. This machine ran (and still does) day and night....maybe spent about 1 - 2 weeks off within the last 5 years....hard drive is still in good condition too!

Charlie, no worries pal. We iin the community will and can wait for a worthy product. Glad to see you still working diligently on it. :laugh:
Flinkly:
um, not to sound like i'm in a rush, but does this halt my side project? also, sorry to hear you got crapped on by technology. makes you realize how dependent we all our. sad really, but it's what makes the world go round (that, and gravity).

You're right, you can replace the board, but you'll need the EXACT EXACT same model # and same revision # too.
Otherwise you have an option to send it to a data recovery place such as Action Front in Toronto. I used them a couple years ago. Cost $500 cdn, but was worth it in light of all the work related data I would lose. You can always claim it on your taxes since it's a business related expense.

I agree...The company I work for is an IBM shop, and this years new workhorse model comes with these crappy SATA drives...
I've sent out about six drives for recovery in the last 2.5 months, and Action Front is the best...
Better prices than anywhere I've found too...
If you're in the GTA, they have a drop off service...otherwise, there's offices in Atlanta, Buffalo, Chicago, Dallas, Santa Clara, Toronto and Tokyo...
There's a form on-line that you fill out and then send it off...their number is 1.800.563.1167 just in case...
