I am trying to get the drive returned and replaced with a Fujitsu M2954S. They have an excellent -no excuses- return policy that I have had occasion to use once, so that takes most of the fear factor out of these situations. I'm also ordering one of the 5-1/4 inch cooler fans as added insurance. All of my other drives are 5400's 1-2gb-Micropolis and 2-1gb-Fujitsu with only the one mentioned problem. I appreciated the suggestions on cooling requirements and only wish the manufacture and resellers were as informative. I hope this mess may help prevent the same problem with others. Tom
