Sorry Stu, very kind offer but there`s stuff on the drive which was created by other family members. They don`t want it anymore but it could be considered sensitive.

Your drive can be made to work, but it might need a professional to deal with it. If you want to use it, you may need to entrust it to somebody who observes the rules regarding sensitive data (Data Protection Act etc.).

PM me if you would like it sorted.

If not, before you dump it, take a 6 inch nail and drive it right through the top casing, platters, and bottom casing.

The rule is, "If you can't fix it, make sure nobody else can."
