I'll take a look (I didn't think to look while I had it open the first time). If it is the heads being stuck is there any repair tips for that that I can try while I have it apart? Are there drives more prone to that type of failure than others? Aside from that CF adapter, are there any other alternatives to replacing this drive, such as an SCSI to IDE adapter. I didn't study it too carefully, but it looks like there's a bit of room available (unless the trackball assembly occupies that space?).

Thanks,

J White
