 I had put a 251 into my AT comp as a second hard disk alongside 
the 4038 that came with the box. After about an hour of running
with the case off, I happened to feel both drives and noticed the
251 was actually HOT! The 4038 was actually COOL! I became 
suspicious after this along with the other strange noises the
251 makes (I know they are supposed to be normally noisy when
parking and spinning up), and decided to send the drive back for
a 6085. All has been happy ever after.
