Hehe, that's not a bad plan :) I'll research it a bit, and give it a go - it's not like I have got anything to lose :p:

Not sure really - in all fairness, I probably won't get one that size, I was just trying to make myself feel better by thinking 'I'll get a bigger, better one, now ' :D It also depends on how much money I have left in my bank, so I guess I'll just have to wait and see ;)

I managed to lost my old 20gb linux drive. It was quite a lucky setup that I ended up having - one which I will definitely use again :) My disaster action plan was almost ruined by not knowing the admin password, but, thanks to you, there was only one disaster, rather than two :D |
