Your PC's harddisk, i.e. the thing that contains the most precious of
your computer : the data.
You might be able to repair a certain class of failures with these
drives, but in most cases you will have to replace it.
Also the same is true for the computer CPU's. If it breaks, you replace
it . You do not want a FIB machine so you had a chance to repair the IC
itself.
Most of us view CPU and HD as basic building blocks of a computer. If
you take the same viewpoint on a PC's motherboard, then there is no
(technical) reason why a more modern PC is out of the question.
If you don't want another PC because you lack space, now there is
something I can really understand !
