BCM 400 3.6 - Replace Hard Drive? 1

[TerranPhil]

The hard drive on our BCM 400 3.6 is having issues. I pulled the drive and found that the WINNT partition had become corrupt which a chkdsk /f appears to have fixed. The only remaining issue is the LOGS partition having two bad sectors. I've imaged the drive and I am wondering if it's possible to use another IDE hard drive in here or does it have to be the exact same drive? There is no RAID on this BCM.

you can use another drive

Thank you BombOne. It worked flawlessly.

Hey TerranPhil is there anyway I can get ahold of you about this? I am having a similar issue with my BCM400. Looks like the hard drive failed and I need to replace it. Our phone tech said you can't do it but if it's just an IDE drive, I'd like to swap it out for another.

If you've done this, could you help me through it?

You IT dept should have no issues, just image the drive to another.
