Whats so bad about them? Or were you being sarcastic? I've replaced hard drives before without too much trouble. Of course getting a new computer would be easier... guess I'll have to work on the fiance for that one.
If your hard drive blows up, you lose everything on that drive. This is uncool even if you have recent backups. It becomes supremely Jelenedra if you don't. Simply plopping the old drives into a new computer or motherboard, on the other hand, is much simpler. Motherboards and computers can be replaced, your data can't.

Ah, I understand now :( And you are correct. I was only thinking about financial things, but loads of personal data is more important. Before I did my reformat I backed up about 8 dvds worth of stuff, and I'm sure I'll find that I missed something.
