I'm thinking WeaKnees for a new drive. I tried all of the Kickstarts and GSOD kept appearing.
Is there any particular drive you would suggest? I am a Mac person and know close to NOTHING about PC's and hard drives. I did just buy a little ASUS Netbook though. I think the $348 is so high so that people won't consider going that route. Thank goodness this wasn't my HDXL. I need to find a way to back up the HDXL as I would absolutely explode if I lost the contents of that unit.
