[Leica] Strictly OT: System Crash

[jhnichols at lighttube.net (Jim Nichols)]

Bob & Frank,

Thanks, guys.  I have spent a good part of the evening searching for the 
best, most reliable, replacement.  I've learned a lot about problems, but 
little about solutions.  As I said, I'm still working the problem.

Most direct replacements currently on the market are refurbs, and many of 
them are shown as "out of stock".  Some SATA II drives have a jumper that 
will allow them to be used with some SATA 1 controllers, but the clarifying 
info is hard to find.
