New Hard Drive Installation
My old hard drive was making bad noises, so I bought a new one to replace it. I got a Western Digital 80GB drive through Amazon. It came shipped as an OEM unit -- no documentation or instructions. Anyway, I finally got it in the system and formatted using instruction that I had kept from xxcopy documentation that I had kept from the last time I did this sort of thing. I then used xxcopy to clone the new disk to the old drive C. All of this is done in DOS. For some reason xxclone didn't work, I think due to lack of instructions on how to prepare the drive. All is well. The new drive is now drive D until the old drive fails. Then I'll just transfer it to the old drive location and ribbon connector.
The old drive stopped making those bad noises. I think it knew what I was up to.

NECTAR, n. A drink served at banquets of the Olympian deities. The secret of its preparation is lost, but the modern Kentuckians believe that they come pretty near to a knowledge of its chief ingredient.

Columbine Day in Colorado - 10th Anniversery
Greeting from Colorado. Snowy weekend that was ideal for puttering in the wood shop. Crown molding beckons this spring.
My son was a Columbine H.S. survivor, so I am thinking about stopping by the memorial on the way home from work, something I have never done in ten years.
Beautiful day in Denver.Leave a comment:
