Never seen this before.

A HDD of mine (IBM Deskstar 20GB IC35L020AVER07-0) 'died' when I restarted
Windows (XP btw FWIW). Windows shut down OK seemingly but wouldn't restart.




They aren't called "Deathstars" just to be cute.


Heck, they aren't even called "IBM" any more.



Well, even IBM had SOME standards. They ran their hard drive
division into the toilet, then liquidated what was left, to another
company.
