Hoping my internal drive isn't done for; haven't backed up in over two months. Aaaaargh!
Computer started slowing down and was getting Beachball of death like crazy. Eventually, after several restarts, I couldn't get past login screen.
Tried to repair the drive via Disk Utility in target disk mode from another computer.
"Can't repair this disk" God, please no.
However, I can still mount the Bootcamp partition and see the files there which is the only glimmer of hope I'm hanging on to. If the hard-drive was fried wouldn't both partitions be unmountable??
Any suggestions?
Will buying Diskwarrior or Drive Genius be able to fix what Disk Utility can't?
Anything else?
Oh, and Merry Christmas
