Hi: Just asking for your experience with above mentioned hard drives. I had some 1TB and 2GB Barracuda drives failing with very erratic behaviour. As a last resort before trashing them I removed the circuit board. On the contacts for the heads and also on the "washer"-shaped contacts for the srews I found a brownish-reddish film. I removed it with a white soft eraser. After assembling the drives they work OK ever since. Now I bought two 2GB Seagate NAS drives and on one I found the same film on the contacts - just not as bad as on the drives which failed. I bought the 1TB drives locally in PY but the 2GB NAS drives came from a European supplier.
Has somebody around here made similar experiences with those drives? If you don't mind to waste your time responding to this message ;-) Cheers Eike -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
