Another Hard Drive Failure (#532)

Damn it! Yet another hard drive went south on me last night. Thank the Almighty I took the time to setup these mirrored drives.

I don't get it. I bought two identical IBM 30GB drives just over a year ago. They've both gone belly up within two weeks of each other. They sit in a Micron tower PC under the desk in my home office. It's about four inches off the floor, connected to a well-conditioned power line, with plenty of open air around it.

I have one of those little temp alarms from PC Power & Cooling that's supposed to let me know if it gets too hot. The darn thing has never beeped once.

This is not funny. I don't have time for this. Worse, I don't know where to look for the source of the problem.
