Hehe, no, it wasn't them. Dell does annoying things like turning cable connectors around, so they don't get my money.

Is it that fragile...? The slave is a 4.5 GB Western Digital something someone threw after me... I dump things that are semi-important onto that for redundancy. > i'd try a different ( new ) power supply Hmmm, ok. May I ask why? > as henrique(?) said ... make backups .. Sure. All my important work is checked into a remote SVN repository. I have a few big things on the disk, but it is public domain data, using Linus' backup strategy, and allthough it would be painful to download all that again, it can be done. E-mail, --get-selections and a handful of letters is all I need backup for, that goes on the slave disk regularly, which is occasionally burnt to CD.
