Please let >me know if you have had these issues before. > I just had a 40 gig IBM Deskstar drive die. It wasn't in my mac, but it did fail after about a year of heavy service in my Tivo box. IBM gladly replaced it, but they don't do advanced replacements. You are not alone. I believe it is the 75XX series Deskstar drives that are causing all sorts of problems for many computer users everywhere.
