> for that you would have to take it out and look for 78FK, if u have that it can still be done, so id say ur all set.

gotcha I’ll have to think about it before voiding the warranty since it technically isn’t my box.

Damnit… I got mine last night and it’s the Toshiba drive. I was really hoping it would be the Hitachi so I could get beg buickgn for help. 🙂

Really good tutorial here:

Going to do a bunch of reading today and then maybe tear into it. Nothing like voiding your warranty the 2nd day you own something.
