That's annoying Mike.

What brand of hard drive was it?

I have had trouble with large Seagate drives before, but I think HDD failure is going to become more and more common with the huge capacities that we have now.

Get an external FW800 HDD (or better an array, such as a Drobo, I have a 16Tb Drobo attached to my desktop at home) and use time machine for your new Mac. You shouldn't lose anything that way.

Cheers
Stuart
