Another update about the external hard drive

I know it wouldn’t have worked, giving it to an arrogant person that is unlikely to get anything done.
The IT guy gave it back to me this morning and said it didn’t work.
Which in a way, I was expecting.
Also it means that I don’t have to thank him or pay him back, so that’s a good thing, I guess.

Now it a matter of who can I give it to get the data back without having to pay for it.
