	Is it time to throw out my hard drive or might it be salvaged?
I've been using a 30mb SCSI Segate w/ a Trumpcard500 controller for 
about 2 years.  In the past 6 months or so I've had some problems with
the drive refusing to spin on power up.  But I think it really gave up
on Sunday.  Now When I power my Amiga it spins and sputters as usual and
then STOPS after about 45 seconds!  At this point my Amiga decides to
prompt me for a workbench disk.
