Found it. Article 31347
<http://til.info.apple.com/techinfo.nsf/artnum/n31347>:
"Apple has become aware of an issue with 40 GB and 60 GB Quantum hard drives
used in Power Mac G4 (Digital Audio) computers. A limited number of these
drives have been found to damage files, cause data loss, and potentially
prevent the computer from starting up. Only a small number of the computers
built with these hard drives are affected. You can find out if your computer
is affected by determining if its serial number falls within a certain range
of numbers outlined below."
