Summary: Is my external drive healthy, Doc?

As the subject line says, my external drive does not seem to be in the
best of health.  I truly worry about the disks that sit in it, because
they come out extremely warm!  Is this SOP for the external drive, or
do I have a bum unit?  BTW, I was surprised that no warranty card came
with the external drive or the 256K RAM card.  How is C-A going to handle
service on these peripherals?

Thanks.

Lee

P.S. The noise my drive makes seems to be the motor starting and stopping.
It's just a tiny little peep, but it started yesterday and seems like the
start of a problem.  I'd like to nip this in the bud.  Can I say that in
mixed company?
