My luck is that I only have today to get this thing working, then I am going to be out of town for 3 months.
Well, you can bring the player with you out of town, can't you?
Since it's the weekend, you won't be able to reach the support team in England, so they can't give you the go-ahead to crack open the player until Monday. And none of us here have the authority to authorize you to do it.
However, I will tell you this:
If you are careful, and you're experienced with this kind of thing (working with computer components), you will have no trouble opening the player and either reseating the cable or moving the drive to the other connecor. Whenever you do get through to support, that's what David will tell you to do, and he'll simply refer you to the
Drive Upgrade guide for the instructions anyway.
But, I can't speak for David, and I don't know with absolute certainty that he'd authorize you to do that. I'm pretty sure it'd be all right given the circumstances. But if you are clumsy and you damage the player in the process, you will have to pay for the repair bill.
You take a chance either way. I leave it to you. - Morpheus
