Piazza) Distribution: na Organization: SUNY/Buffalo Computer Science Lines: 29 Me again. My Seagate 138N (3.5" 30 Meg) doesn't seem to spin-up -- no characteristic jet-pitched whine. It did this last week but turning the machine on and off a few times did the trick. Not this time. Two questions: 1. I've seen posting talking about this spin-up problem as well as a solution (aside from buying another hard drive). 2. What's the warranty on this sucker? Two labels on the drive warn about voiding the warranty but nothing about this, nor virtually all other information, comes with the drive. Any information welcome. As always, send e-mail and I'll summarize and post. I'll e-mail everything I receive upon request (my last summary is about two months late). :-O Thanks, joe piazza --- In capitalism, man exploits man. In communism, it's the other way around. CS Dept.
