Swimmer Posted April 6, 2006 CID Share Posted April 6, 2006 what type of drive do you have? You can call the manufacture and a new one depending on the manufacture.. I know that maxtor carries 3-5 years on their drives..

php Posted April 7, 2006 CID Share Posted April 7, 2006 php Lol did my drive die? it's dying... still hanging in but I don't think there's much left for it. I'm starting to get read errors, drive not ready for command, dma timeout, odd noises... I think I can get it replaced under warranty but I'm not sure. I also had a 4 month old Seagate die, and a Maxtor that's about a year a half old.

richcornucopia Posted April 7, 2006 CID Share Posted April 7, 2006 I've never had a drive fail either, I did have one that acted strange, but I sold that one to php . Might be time to back up all of your data that you have on these dying drives.
