| Post subject: | MHDD And Timeout |
Hello everyone. I wanted to know, what does TIMEOUT (question mark) in MHDD mean? Is there a way to fix this? If there is a way to fix it, is it really completely fixes the problem or is it better to replace the hard drive? |

Unfortunately I don't have time to discuss your other questions. If you explain whether you need the data from the drive, and what risks you are prepared to take, then perhaps someone else will reply. |

Obviously I need the data from the hard disk. But let's say I have already copied the data from the hard disk My question was, can we fix this error? Is it better to replace it? |

Some people just want to repair a drive and don't need the data, as that drive was just a backup - that's why I asked. So obviously when someone gives me attitude and sarcasm, instead of being polite and grateful, I don't spend valuable time giving them long answers.  urix wrote: My question was, can we fix this error?
