What happened to my computer...
I bought an iMac three years ago and the hard drive burnt out, it was a Maxtor, I had no idea it was a Maxtor, hard drives that are not so stellar. It only had 153 GB and I needed to get my information. The Mac Store said I had to pay $400 to just get a new hard drive (same size--153 GB) and no info save. Bascially I had a genius friend helped me out and clone my infomation--which took a week. I still dont have all the info but I put it in an enclosure and use as an external drive, but I saved so much money. I got a new internal drive--1 TB (1,000 GB). I only spent like $200 or so.
