New Guys

I figured that "foe" feature wasnt any good. But anyway, the lot of drives on Ebay I got are all dead so claims the seller, and I believe him. So I was figuring these first videos were on the lines of anatomy and proper handeling technics. Stuff better to show than explain. And relax about platter swaping. That would really only be a bragging video. I cant see the masses being able to do something like that unless I have a brain fart of shear genious that makes it a snap. I doubt that will happen, so I will be concentrat on stuff people can possibly do economically. It would be really instructive if it turns out I can fix these drives. But we'll see when they arrive. The last time I bought a busted camcorder on Ebay, the damn thing was an empty shell. That guy had some nerve calling that thing busted...

Apart the expense for drives that most probably are already tampered, you'll soon realize that nothing can be done "your way" without specific equipment. I buy in stock defective drives, the ones without hda problems can be repaired only with special tools. You are definitely wasting time and money, but this is up to you. Till now, nothing but words. When we will read something different, we'll trust you a little more - you changed your mind too often. In Italy there's the motto "fatti, non parole" - we want facts, not words. And in China there's another : if a single word is not enough, 10'000 will be useless.
Can please this - I think useless, now - thread should be closed?

If people here were to be nice to New members with thoughtfull and welcoming words, then maybe I could scale back some.

Whetner you scale back some or not, I really dont think the end result will be different
