Yes, I once scorched a hard drive. It was spiting out all kinds of errors. I got some more fans and cooled it down and it aparently works just fine now. Though according to some utilities I have run on it any more trama to it and it will fail. You failed to say what hard drive you had, but some hard drives come with S.M.A.R.T. If it does you can apt-get install smartsuite to get some diagnostic utilities that will run under linux. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
