Is is true that if I take the lid off my hard drive all the data will be lost.
My hard drive crashed a few weeks ago and after sending it off to a few companys claiming to be able to recover the data off the drive I found out that the heads would need replacing... This woudl cost me more than I could afford and more than the data on the drive is worth. I've got another identical hard disk with no information on it. Is it possible to just take the controller card and the heads out of the blank drive and put them into the new drive?
Thanx
