    Six hard drive problems in one week! Jeez... Well, the first 3 were my fault, beer and setting up a RAID0 is not a good mixture, all 3 of those lived. Yesterday, one of my folding borgs was down, making horrible noises from the hard drive. I replaced it, worked great for a while, then, the old Quantom Fireball did the same. I replaced it with another drive, and after half a day, well, guess what, Kernal panic, unable to write to temp files... well the Linux would not boot.

    I just got done replacing that drive with a nice WD drive that was in my main computer. Heck, I have 2 320Gig drives, I probably have less than 100Gigs of stuff, I don't really need another 250Gigs in this computer!

    I hate Maxtor DiamondMax drives. These 2 bring the Maxtor Death Toll to around 7 between where I used to work and my stuff in the last year.
