I am not an IT pro but I have been computing since back in the eight bit days. It is true that hard drives in the pre-Gigabyte days did fail from time to time. I have never had a driver greater than 10 G fail. Early on I occasionally thought that a drive had failed and I put it in my hard drive drawer but later when playing with it I was able to just reinstall windows on it with no trouble. I have many drives that I have removed from my old computers. I suppose some drives do fail but I would never assume that until I had run the computers emergency rescue disk or system on them. [I use that term system since lots of companies have stopped supplying emergency disks and just have a rescue partition. They strongly suggest that the user create his own disk just in case he cannot boot.] Jim If you have any questions or problems with any aspect of this site, please feel free to contact me directly [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please do not post personal issues directly to the group.
