[QUOTE="Aqua, post: 1360388, member: 37545"] But it Sounds like you may have part of your answer: "both times happened right after I came home from school." I may be wrong but buying a win machine probably won't fix this problem unless you change some habits (and I can't see that a win machine is/would be more durable.. why? As was said you may be jostling it around, I would take a look inside (I'm not sure of warranty issues tho, but if you are honestly getting rid of it...) and check connections before you go and buy a new hd. You could also take those old hds and see if they are detected in another machine and then you would also know that it's not the hd, but a motherboard or connection issue - all which may have been caused by jostling. If the computer was new or within warranty, then you could also take advantage of apple care warranty other than that, the hd should be covered under the manufacturer of the hd. good luck [/QUOTE]
