Uhh, crap. I'm building PostgreSQL in the Linux VMware guest OS, and the drive started making a bunch of sounds that can only be described as being similar to taking a floppy out of the drive wh- ile it's being written to. Of course, these sounds were coupled with a system freeze and a bunch of ata error messages when every- thing had passed. Has anyone ever experienced *anything* like this? Trent.
