It's removable, I said I've already replaced it once. I just thought I'd try an external, with the added benefit of not having to take my computer apart. :)
I bought a new external drive and it arrived today. I ripped two audiobooks, some twenty disks, without a problem. I'm still convinced there was something fishy with the system, but for now the...

11/19/15 - I hope this is the right place to post this. So I just installed the BIG Windows 10 update (can't remember what it was called, 1511 or something) and so far it seems all right, except my...
