In our case it wasn't. The temperature was Ok, ventilation too. BUT. The drive which died was not really a CPF1060S. That was CFP1080S with a "small" (or "Sun-style") interface connector, and an additional part which had a usual 50-pin SCSI connector. Maybe one of those disks left when Sun refused to buy Conners any more. # # Greg # -- With best regards -- Andrew Stesin. +380 (44) 2760188 +380 (44) 2713457 +380 (44) 2713560 "You may delegate authority, but not responsibility."
