well, if the safe way fails to work out, I'll yank it out.
Please feel free to point out any mistakes in my messages. That will be helpful for me to make less mistakes in the future. :-)
Any help will be appreciated.:thnx:

I always do it properly (unless I'm in a real hurry).
No wonder it doesn't work! You installed the coils backwards! :D

I have that much too. I also have my 1 terabyte Seagate (please don't hate me :)). I've barely even used a tenth of that.
