Thank you Chip! Very valuable information.Site goes into bookmarks! I guess that resellers of hardware should first check to see if their stuff doesn't contain known bugs. Would safe us valuable time and mony. But then again, this way I have learned something again. Have a very nice day / evenin

That disk is one that has the reference temperature bug in the firmware. There was a big thread about that recently.Flashing an updated firmware will likely bring it back to life. Doing it on that system will likely be difficult because the fault manager will get in the way. I wrote a small
