I assume that the HDD is > 100 GB

Cost 10 Euro * 2 (way back) = 20 Euro

20 Euro / 100 GB = 0,2 Euro/GB


100 GB saved on over > 20 DVD's and restore on a reformated HDD
will take about 40 hours.

Based on 20 Euro that a hourly wage of 0,50 Euro.

How cheap can it be in Netherland?

lol, but there is airport taxes over the 10 euro's so it'll be about 25 euro's :P still cheap. i think that it'll b cheaper if i just did it in thenetherlands :P maybe iceman can tell me how 2 do it.

My brother had a talk with me and made me realize it's better for me to just buy a hdd, so i ordered a new hdd 2day. a 200 gb for only 110 euro's :lol:

you need to boot up on a working drive with your duff drive plugged in as a second drive
then run the drive repair program to fix the duff drive
but you will need a working drive to boot from theres no other way

or send it to me and i'll do it its up to you
