    Harddrive question

    i just need to get the files from the HDD and then either toss it or use it as a secondary HDD(40gb). wouldn't there be driver issues though? also curious as to whether or not i could use it as a slave drive instead of the primary to extract files.

    Harddrive question

    I have a harddrive from my early 2000s Dell which has died. Would i be able to swap out my current HD and replace it with my old one? Would i be able to set the old HD as a slave and retrieve data from it? Yes, i have the necessary cables to connect the old HD to my MB. Thanks

    well i bought this. no dead pixels. and i get the humming when i adjust the brightness below 98, but that is easily fixed by adjusting the settings using CCC, so i don't know why people are complaining so much about it. going to hook my wii up to it later and test it out.
