Thanks, fellas. ^^ 

     The hard drives didn't fail simultaneously, rather the data drive began showing errors here and there, and then occasionally getting stuck for a moment, and only some time later did the C drive start to have problems, such as losing the object library for PhotoImpact.  The library was there, but PI could no longer read it, even if I re-pointed PI to the library again.  Then one day it just wouldn't boot.

     This computer was the hardest worked box I had;  it was the one on which I built most of my models, mapped them, worked up materials, worked out motion sequences, etc., as well as doing a lot of small test renders.  In other words, I put a lot of mileage on it.

     The cost/benefit makes repairing a 32bit machine nearly worthless to me.  But this Dozer chassis has big 120mm fans and liquid cooling, and with an upgrade to 64bit Win7 and 8GB, it would be quite useful.
