Hi, My message database is 44 mb. The last time I compacted my messages I lost half of them. I have noticed more whistling sounds than previously and am wondering if this is just a flaw of the Pismo or is this a signal that my hard drive is on it's way out? It isn't super fragmented or anything. I guess I will start backing up all of my stuff. I am too sick to do it but I can't risk losing all of my valuable info on the hard drive.
Thanks for any advice.
