I am not sure this is the correct place to put this message, but
I am having some hard disk problems.  I have an Epson Equity I+
XT compatable, with a miniscribe 3650 hard disk.  Now, this is
my problem.  Tonight when I turned it on, instead of spinning up,
the LED on the front of the drive flashed 4 (maybe 5) quick blinks
of red, then one long blink, and finally two sets of 3 quick blinks.
I am assuming this is some sort of error code, and unfortunately
I don't have the manual for the drive.  So, could some kind soul with
a miniscribe 3650 manual please tell me what the error code means so
I can maybe fix it.  Thanks in advance.
