Same thing happened to me, with an Optimal Technologies Optima 30 (Seagate
mechanism).  I had it fixed once a year ago (under warranty) and now it's
doing it again.  :-(.  Has anyone noticed if this particular problem
happens mostly with Seagates?  Could it be overheating?  I certainly
haven't used it for 30,000 hours, or whatever (only had it a coupla years).
