Check with Jono-Art, he has the exact tool you need on that. I got one and it works really well.

Thats the real problem, the people think on one easy button solutions maybe thats the difference between an engineer and the most people "newbies" :roll: well im not talking about career im talking thinking like an "engineer" , im know u salvation u are doing a good job, but u not always should solve the problems from the clients, they should "think" on first , if they dont think, they dont learn thats on my IMHO, and if they dont learn u always get the client asking & asking, because he dont learn by self & never undestand how really the HDD works , like i always told are Tools not magic wizards.

Regards
