We too have had problems with 20 Mb MicroScience drives and an occasional Seagate. The drives in all cases seemed to be running perfectly except for making rather irritating whinning noises. I oiled the MicroScience as it is not enclosed on the bottom. Well, that worked for about a week and then back to the same old whine. We finally replaced it with a Seagate.
