It's quite possible that the problem may be little more than bit-rot due to
the degredation of the magnetic domains on the drive platters. (or it
really could be busted, but let's think good thots here) Also, power
failures during writes could honk up the drive real easily...
Naw, he says its clicking. I think its internal mechanical failure.
