[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1610906, member: 56379"] Not true at all. If you had 100 different models that you were upgrading (assuming hard drives since this is what this thread seems to be focusing on)…you wouldn't have to ask 100 different questions…for at least two reasons: 1. Those 100 models would fall into only a few categories or "buckets" of upgrade paths. Not 100 different "buckets" or paths. 2. We learn from experience. After you've done a bunch of these upgrades..subsequent upgrades would be "no-brainers". :):) - Nick [/QUOTE]
