But, - if your harddrive sounds like a cat, then is soething wromg... Backup your data, because your Toshiba has reached the end of live. I use since many years IBM Travelstar and had no problems... > If yes, what is your experience regarding Acer or Toshiba (hd > manufactuer) customer service/warranty handling? Maybe you get trouble with Acer, but Toshiba has 3 years waranty, but NOT from the date you have bought the Harddisk... The time counts from the month, it was manufactured. > Thanks a bunch, Martin Bock Greetings Michelle -- Linux-User #280138 with the Linux Counter, http://counter.li.org/ Michelle Konzack Apt. 917 ICQ #328449886 50, rue de Soultz MSM LinuxMichi 0033/3/88452356 67100 Strasbourg/France IRC #Debian (irc.icq.com)
