The new hard drive for my computer arrived last week and I didn't have the time to install it until this weekend. (They tell me I have to come to work to get paid...) Saturday morning I began tackling the breakdown of the computer and getting the new hard drive installed. Basically I had to format and install the new hard drive, copy the data from the old spare hard drive onto the new hard drive, then erase the old main hard drive and copy the data from the old spare drive onto the old main drive to act as the current spare drive.
It took the better part of the weekend because Windows takes so long to install, plus I have a ton of other programs that I use and all of them had to be reinstalled on the new hard drive. The one thing I forgot to do was backup my music. So the five hours I spent ripping music to my computer a couple weeks ago was a complete waste. The computer got a good cleaning and new hardware and is now happy and working perfectly. Hopefully, I will not have to pull it's guts out for a long time now.
