Yeah, my friend was smart and tracked down the company that Dell outsources maintenance work to, and that guy charged 4k to fit a 250GB hard drive in my friend's lappy. But 21k for a simple HDD replacement job is just plain criminal. This is the reason why Dell gives "amazing" service within the warranty period. By charging 10x for out-of-warranty repairs/replacements.
