Well,

	I have a CMS 60 that went back to the company I bought it from 3 times
(one of the times being a week after getting it back). It must be sent back to
the place you bought it from.

	I haven't had any trouble with my new replacement yet, but the first
one lasted 5 months also. I like the drive, but I hate the trouble.

	(When you have about 5 hours, I will tell you about my troubles with
Zip Technologies.)

Good Luck,
Scott
