I have a 80 gig maxtor drive which has failed & appears dead. This drive has info that I need to salvage
Enquiries at my local PC shop inform that it could cost £400 upwards to salvage the data etc. I opened the drive up & was surprised that the interior is similar to DVD /CD drive with a large silver disc. is it not simply a case of removing this disk & fitting it in another maxtor drive that I could buy for around £60 ? is it more complicated than that ? need advice before I open buy & open up another drive
