Hey, thanks, well not thanks!! But needed info! Pretty bad timing too! Planing a trip for next Weds.! I will be off to look for a new drive, and will try the freezer trick.
be sure to call IBM and check on the warranty on that drive before you chuck it. Many of the travelstar drives have a 3 year warranty. Even if you need to purchase a new drive sooner, you can have that one fixed under warranty and get a working drive back to use in an external case, or sell to offset the cost of a new drive.
