I just purchased an external USB housing for the surviving HDD from the
illfated laptop.

Brand : Excell

Cost : $29.00 with USB2 lead and vinyl protector case as well as spare
screws and a miniature screwdriver.

Purchased from Austin Computers

It took all of five minutes to fit drive and get it working with Linux
