Main computer is still out but the drives were fine, I got the data with a sata / USB adaptator as I had a spare laptop at home.
The CPU is dead and the computer is really old so I guess it will not be easy to just change that (compatibility issues). I will wait and see for now. The only thing more or less up to date in it was the graphic card anyway...
My cheap laptop from work works just as well TBH ;)
It was an amazing machine but its prime time was already long gone...
