I hate       to be wasteful and don't want to just throw the HDD's away. So, I need to       actually change the HDD's and made them into SDD's so they will be faster       and more reliable.              I don't care about losing any data; I can reformat them.              --- SoupGate-DOS v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
