Woot! So my old drives aren't dead! Yahoo!! I was able to pull everything off of my 20gig drive and I'm cleaning it up now. Great fun! At least I know now that the old machine wasn't eating the drives. Now, I just have to find the weak link in the system and replace it. I wonder if it could be as simple as replacing the IDE cables. I'm thinking a new case is in order no matter what - the old AT case and power supply are leaving me a little worried. I'm hoping it's just something simple like a cable because I don't really want to have to buy a new motherboard just to get it running again. It would make a good little file server or something like that. :)
