You have encountered a very common problem with the Quantum HD40. If you
take off the top, you may find that the drive is not spinning. Hopefully,
you will be able to get a warranty replacement. There is speculation that
either the bearings seize on this series of drive or that the heads stick to
the media surface. Check with you Apple dealer.
