Message-ID: <32032@nigel.ee.udel.edu> Date: 1 Oct 90 17:13:55 GMT Sender: mmdf@ee.udel.edu Lines: 21 Dear All, My two 40Mbyte-disks are acting weird. Can someone help me? 1. My Seagate ST251-1 (42Mb, 28ms) still works, but makes lots of noise, which comes from the spindle or somewhere near it (bad spindle ?) What can be done (it sounds like an airplane flying over the house- not funny !) 2. My MiniScribe 3640 starts flashing its red light as soon as it is up to speed. What might be wrong with it? Thanks, Fred (desperately!) +-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-+ | MINIX User Group Holland UUCP: waltje@minixug.UUCP | | c/o Fred van Kempen, or: waltje%minixug@plains.nodak.edu | | Hoefbladhof 27 | | 2215 DV VOORHOUT "Love is - what you want it to be. | | The Netherlands Alannah Myles" | +-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-+
