Uh-oh...it was spinning fine for a good couple hours but has now
stopped the motor of the drive and Windows is giving me an error about
"could not write to the drive, it could be caused by a hardware
failure". Is there *any* chance that the drive is corrupt and needs a
formatting? If not...is there a way to discover whether this is
caused by the drive or the battery or something else?...
