Default G5 PPC crash DISKWARRIOR questions.

Hi all, My G5 PPC HD Accel 2 system drive crashed. I ran diskwarrior and it says my drive is too damaged to fix, It brought up the preview window so I can backup my files to my 2nd internal drive which I am doing.

my question is should I now purchase a new drive and reinstall everything I can. Or drag everything that Diskwarrior recovered to my backup drive and then just move it back to the new drive. (applications plugins etc.)

is there any important folders I should not overlook.

a couple general questions I know but any advise on my recovery sequence would be appreciated.

Its an old system I know but it was working fine for me. My specs are below.
Thanks in advance for any posts.

Default Re: G5 PPC crash DISKWARRIOR questions.

I would install fresh, Disk Warrior is attempting to retrieve your files. The absolutely 100% ones are on your install disks. You may get away with it or not.
