Glad you found a fix, but it should not have cost you $30 just because you had to replace a dead drive, which should have lasted longer anyway.

Yeah. But hard drives fail. It's not if, it's when. I suppose I just drew the short straw with this one. I don't even care about the $30. What chaps my hide is that Apple has gone back to it's same old proprietary crap. In the old days, you couldn't just buy any old hard drive. You had to get the Apple branded hard drive. Which of course cost more. And now it's the same thing all over again.
