This happened to me yesterday morning. Never had a problem, no warning at all. Was working fine the night before, went to use it the next morning, got the dreaded, flashing, question mark folder. My computer is only a year and half old and I have always treated it like a newborn baby.
Went to apple store last night and the so called "genius" said since it is out of warranty there is nothing they can do. Usually the genius bar is really helpful, but I had no luck this time.
I do have a Seagate drive, but I do not know for sure it is the Firmware revision is 7.01. Most of my stuff was backed up (except stuff I was working on for work the day before, ARG!), so it is not a complete loss, but now I do not have a working computer!
Anybody know of a good place to buy a new hard-drive? Any other ideas on what I should do? How difficult is it to replace the drive?
Thanks everybody in advance for your help!
