If the unit was running when dropped, the hard drive is probably going belly
up very soon. Back everything up and replace it.

Subject: Re: [Thinkpad] --> R60 Hard Drive Failure??
Thanks for the recommendations. Those who suggested the drive was
unseated were correct. Opened the bay, reseated the drive and all is
well.
*Thanks again,
Jon*

Drive may have become unseated from the connector. R&R it to be sure.

Good Afternoon,
My wife knocked her R60 onto the floor while it was operating, and now
it will not restart. Upon initial power up, it appears unable to find
the hard drive. I'm assuming that the hard drive was damaged by the
impact, but thought I'd ask the list if there's anything else I should
be aware of before I open it up looking for loose cables or to replace
the drive.
Any suggestions for sources for a replacement drive?
