    Hey

    Anyone changed the hard disk on the 8200, if so can u help by telling me how? drivers, what to unscrew and unplug etc. A step by step guide (with pics) would be great :D i intend to swap out the Seagate for a Hitachi 7k100.

    cheers

    i think it's the best way to use Ghost. ghost your partition to image files before you change harddisk, and ghost back with the image files after changed. good luck. you can send me email if you still don't know how to do it.
