Yes, I've been quite happy with mine for 2-3 years now, but... Recently it developed read/write errors. I called HP and opted for the Express Repair option: for $35 addditional, they ship me a refurbished drive, and I ship back my old one, thus getting fast turnaround. It's now been almost a month, and I've still not gotten it. They say they don't have any because they're in such demand, but they started shipping out backlogs last Thursday and Friday. If mine doesn't arrive today, I'm going to have to cancel the damn repair and go buy another drive, and it won't be an HP. I've waited far too long as it is. -- Alan Batie ______ We're Starfleet officers: batie@agora.rdrop.com \ / Weird is part of the job. +1 503 452-0960 \ / --Captain Janeway DE 3C 29 17 C0 49 7A 27 \/ 40 A5 3C 37 4A DA 52 B9 It is my policy to avoid purchase of any products from companies which use unrequested email advertisements or telephone solicitation.
