[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 971542, member: 24098"] That doesn't mean it's failing. It's the sector issues we're worried about. Just read errors don't amount to much. I seriously doubt they use their "seconds". These drives are mass produced, all on the same line. The label that's slapped on it has little baring on the quality of the mechanism. Now, if we were talking about the difference between server class, SCSI or SAS mechanisms, that would be a different story. I feel for you, but as I understand it, the glass-paneled iMacs are a lot more serviceable than the old plastic ones. The biggest pain is popping off the panel and keeping it dust/debris free while you go about your work. If you need a service manual, let me know. [/QUOTE]
