RE: [cobalt-users] Can I turn a Raq4i into a RaQ4r?

["Jeff Edwards" <jeff.edwards@xxxxxxxxx>]

SUN errors on the side caution and likes to keep users out of the box. They
are afraid that you'll use a jack-hammer or something to remove the dead
hard drive. Besides, the Raq is sold as a "plug it in solution" and I'd
guess that a good percentage of owners couldn't identify the hard drive once
the case was opened.

They are just trying to make it easy for the end user I'd guess.

If so, why is sun sending me a whole new raq when one of my hds died and
tells me to replace the entire thing, with everything on it?? It makes no
sense to me.
