When I first got my 2000 I asked the dealer about running it on it's
side.  He said that there would be no problem, but that I would need
to re-prep the 100Meg Quantum since the drive would (due to slight
play in head linkages) be out of alignment on it's side.  Well I tried
it without re-prepping the Quantum, and soon started to have rapidly
more frequent read errors on the drive.  I broke down and re-prepped
the drive, and have been running now for months with no problems.
