Windows will quite happily use broken hard drives, and the royally screw up when it hits a faulty part of the drive, then (often) not give any real clue as to why. Years ago, it was only with Linux that I found out I had a faulty drive, and why a Windows PC was inexplicably crashing. Swapping that drive, nothing else, and running with the same drive contents, and it became more reliable than I generally expected from Windows. Even new hard drives die, so newness is no guarantee. They can get zapped by static during handling. And bumping 5 inch drives while they're running, by moving the PC around, easily damages them. The smaller laptop drives seem better at protecting themselves when they're moved about. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 3.9.10-100.fc17.x86_64 #1 SMP Sun Jul 14 01:31:27 UTC 2013 x86_64 All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying to privately email me, I will only read messages posted to the public lists.
