the drive is physically dead, i have tried everything i could think of,
differet cables, difrent jumper settings, even tried to put in a spare
machine to see if it woudl show up there, nada ... and yes raid0 is zero
redundancy and i have backup's in place for most of the critical data.
Someone sugested getting a drive of the same model and swaping the print
to see if the drive was ok otherwise but i dont know if it's worth the
effort.

(note, this is a 120GB IBM drive, not 6 months old ...grrr)
