| My hard drive was attacked by ants. Need some help to recover my files. | | A couple of months ago my hard drive was attacked by ants and it crashed. I was wondering if there was a way I could recover some of the data I have in that hard drive. A lot of my photos was in that hard drive and I really want to recover them. Do you have any tips or software that could maybe partially recover some of the files. I tried running the drive and I hear some small clicks when I use the drive. I was thinking of using the drive as a slave and recover some of the files. | |

| | my Desktop system won't recognize the 1 TB internal hard drive | | I thought that I have confidence on my desktop system to be compatible with 1 TB internal hard drive. It turns out to be I am wrong. I bought an internal hard drive yesterday, and test it out on my system. It doesn't work, and it won't accept it. I test it again on my other desktop, it only shown 7 GB out of that 1 TB in another desktop. So, it is completely not compatible. I have to return it today. So, I just wonder, how can you know whether your system is compatible with bigger internal storage or not? | |
