I don't remember which model Grids I have but I've had them loose their settings
due to sitting too long and then they they couldn't access their hard drives. All of
them had a little door on the left side above the keyboard with EPROM sockets in them. I
finally found one that had a EPROM in the socket. With that I could boot any of them to a
***virtual*** C: drive and then update the settings and then the computer would boot on
the real C: drive even with the EPROM removed. I've been meaning to make some copies
of that EPROM but I don't have a working EPROM burned that will burn that EPROM
(27c010 IIRC). FWIW none of my Grids have a floppy drive. The floppy drive is external
and I've never been able to find one.

I not too recenly picked up a GRiDCase 3 with 2

external hard drives. Just yesterday they both started acting up on me.
It would initially spin up when you turned it on, but after a few seconds
they would just kick off. A few seconds later I get a "1702" message on
my screen.
I'm lead to believe that there could be a configuration problem
somewhere, but I'm not 100% sure on this.
My questions are:
1. What is going on here?
2. How do I fix this?
