As I stated before this first started happening with me as soon as I had a
new ST277N-1 installed in my B2000. Previous to this drive I had an orginal
ST277N (without the '-1') and it ran flawlessly for 11.25 months (on a 1 year
warranty :-) ). This was with the orginal Cltd controller (Adaptec). The new
drive made noise from the beginning with the old adaptec and now sounds the 
same with the new Kronos. It sounds like a problem with the new drive and
Cltd controllers.
