The drives are likely all right, it's the enclosure that sucks. Almost
like Sigma lenses ... ]'-)
often enough with such things it's the power supply that goes bad; i have had a
power supply go bad with an Other World Computing two-drive RAID case as well;
it was easy enough to replace the power supply (maybe it could be done with
Brian's WD drive?) and OWC admitted they'd had a batch of power supplies that
were unreliable but still made me pay for the replacement; the same RAID case
also has a flaky fan that needs help to get going on the few occasions i power
it down
