| 1156511 | 2010-11-25 21:57:00 | The model of the hdd would be on the top of the hdd? | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||

| 1156513 | 2010-11-25 22:06:00 | Probably cheaper to buy a new HD. :) |

| 1156514 | 2010-11-25 22:08:00 | And are we talking the PCB on the drive itself, or the PCB for the SATA-to-USB controller? | inphinity (7274) | ||
| 1156515 | 2010-11-25 22:13:00 | the pcb on the external itself. it stopped working nearly 2 years ago...and its been sitting in its box since..just thought that its about time i sorted it out. its got thousands of data on it, mostly genealogy stuff that i need for my family tree and photos of my late grandparents. | carnation (16096) | ||

Don't bother trying to get a new PCB for the external enclosure. Just get a new enclosure and put the drive in it. Or just take the drive out of the enclosure and attach it internally to a computer. |

| 1156519 | 2010-11-25 22:55:00 | just answering the other question, no you're not a typical female, or even a typical any sort of computer user. You came to press f1 rather than asking some cheapass computer shop to fix a problem that you can easily fix yourself. So give yourself a pat on the back or have a beer or something, knowing you are more intelligent/have more common sense than more than half of the rest of the world. |
