Talk about dedication!

This guy resuscitated his dead hard drive by replacing the logic board; couldn't bear the thought of losing three months' worth of saved Neverwinter Nights.

That's a lot of effort... I would have just given up... But then I'm not fanatic about anything that may be lost on my hard drive. I do backup to CD-R...

LMAO This guy just has too much time on his hands. I would have just started my characters over.

[Urban_Squrill]

Dam!! I lost 2 years worth of stuf once. It sucked.

Wonder what he would have done if the disks themselves were fritzed.

Does make one wonder about the variablity of drive internals, though.

Cheers

edit: BTW, opening drives out of clean room situations is not a good idea. While they spin up now, for a while, any minor bits of fluff, dirt, grit or dust that got into the mechanisms....

I hope he does regular backups now!!
