I purchased a 30.7GB IBM Deskstar drive in Feb 2001 and have been running it quite happily in my Windows 2000 box with NTFS partitions with no problems whatsoever.
For the last 3 months my computer has been constantly on, with the case open, until last week.
Got home and heard a strange clicking noise coming from my home office, I'll give you one guess what happened.
What can I do? any ideas?
Took the drive to the computer shop, they connected it as a slave drive on a Windows 98 machine and it is very well behaved, even though they could not see the NTFS partitions, computer shop staff thought I was lying.
