Re: Help with Hard drive error messages

[John Stevenson <John@oa.nl>]

I have been experiencing the same problem with my hard drive.  I
believe the problem is that is is simply reaching the end of its
life as I have had it running solid for the last year and have
had it for 3 years before that.

If anyone can give me a more optomistic diagnosis, I would be
very happy...
