I had a HD failure in my desktop PC a few weeks ago. Somehow, the MBR was corrupted. I installed a new HD and thanks to Win7 backup, I was able to restore the system and all data that was only 3 days old.
Yesterday, I installed the old HD in a external case and the system is unable to even recognize the HD. I even installed it back in the PC and used the system repair disk to boot and again, couldn't recognize the HD.
Looks like I have some more rare earth magnets. Also, looked thru the cabinet and came across several 40gig and 60gig drives that are not longer used. These magnets sure come in handy around the shop.
