So I hadn’t planned this, though today is full of mundane errands, I’m replacing the hard drive. It’s a Maxtor and I bought a new Maxtor — 200 gig at $49 after rebate. Not a bad deal.<\/p>\n
The nice thing is how much easier it is these days to replace a hard drive, I was dreading it, and still am, but all I am having to do is run the MaxBlast software.<\/p>\n
