Yes, I was only speaking of the drive itself...not the PB. > > Hal, go here <http://www.hgst.com/warranty/jsp/arma31.jsp> and see if the > drive is covered directly by IBM/Hitachi's usual 3 year warranty.

I checked and it would not be covered since it is Apple OEM. It falls into the 1 year warranty only category. > Heh heh, I'm glad I'm not the only one who occasionally makes a > Mail-List-Faux-Pas. <G> Plus Kyle requoted the original message a second > time for the apology. . . snicker, snicker. <big G> And that simple fact is the reason why I *daily* let another list member's discretions go without a word.
