I'm getting   wary of recent  Micropolis  drives... Between a   few friends
nothing less than 5 died recently (mix of 1/2/9 GB), some after a few weeks
of operation. Agreed there are no 4 GB involved to my knowledge...

Older drives have been working fine (I have  a 1624 -- 640  MB -- 5"1/4, no
problem) for years.
