Macbook Hard drive failure - may not attend

Posted by Doug Baggett at August 01. 2008

So the hard drive in my MacBook Pro had a catastrophic failure last night while in Sleep mode, and since my gaming rig is still down as well I'm pretty much SOL for this weekends race.

Yea, I just got back from the Apple Store. It's going to be an in-store repair replacement for the disk but they have to order it because I have a custom HD (200GB).

I have a Mac-mini that I could use, but would need to install boot camp and rfactor on it (doable). BUT..it runs a fairly pathetic Intel GMA 950 for graphics so I would probably have to reduce everything pretty low to make sure I have reasonable frame rate (Probably DX7).
