We were so close to victory in the previous episode with the Finch drive. It spun up and read briefly, and then the whole house of cards came tumbling down. But, we’re not ones to give up, so let’s regroup, reload and head back into the thick of it. I want the Finch working, I want the Hawk working and I want the floppy working, and I want all three working at the same time. And judging by the title, we nailed it! How? Well, that’s what the video is for!
