I saw this advertised "NEW 320GB SATA 3.5 Hard Disk Drive" a couple of weeks ago, and decided to purchase one.
When I installed it, I was having problems, so I decided to "scan" it with data recovery software. Guess what, I am not even 25% through the drive, and so far, have found 16,757 individual files, photographs, gifs, data files, pdf's etc, which I can recover. This begs the question, where does this drive originate from, and why are the sellers claiming it as being "NEW."
Where do you put your old hard drives?
There are hundreds, if not thousands of P.C's put into to our local recycle centre yearly.
"The information is out there, you just have to let it in."
Take care with your hardware.
