Hi Robert; Thanks for all the info on the hard drives...I suspect from what you describe it is a noisy bearing. I shopped yesterday for a replacement. The storage capacity of the HD's is increasing so rapidly it is amazing.....I think it was about 3 years ago I got this Pent II to replace the 486...I got a 2.3 Gig drive then, which was the largest without paying an outrageous premium.....today the SMALLEST drive available is 20 Gig! The price here is about $90 for the drive and $40 to copy all the data from my old drive to the new one.....certainly a prudent move if a failure is looming...as it apparently is.

Regards, Bud
