It is possible (but never verified) that a friend got a virus that destroyed his hard drives in a PPC 8100/100 last year. The reason that I'm not sure that it was a virus is that although he had the drives wiping out one by one ala virus, he had at least one old drive that I suspect went bad. It is possible that it did something to the formatting on his other drives as he tried to use them . He reformatted the drives and tossed the bad drive (His OEM boot drive and the terminated drive in his chain.) and everything ran fine again. I'd heard of that happening before to people, but hadn't seen it in person.
