bobp...C.O.D. pertains mostly to the JAZ drives from IOM. When a cartridge is inserted into the drive a clicking sound is heard. It usually renders the cartridge useless. I have three Mac workstations and ALL three have experienced the problem. It's a pain to loose the info and the hardware at the same time.

There is good news and bad news for IOM re: The Click of Death.

The good news: IOM replaces the device and tries to restore the lost data free of charge.

The bad news: Using my kind of failure rate as an indicator, you can guess as to what their profitability is and wonder what it could be.
