How to be a (rotational) jerk: Disconnect power and data cable then remove the disk assembly from the IIci. Remove the disk from the spring tray. The disk rotational axis is two inches back from the face of the SCSI connector edge, and centered with respect to the faces of the long edges, and the internal platters holding the data are about 3.75 inches in diameter. The idea is to hold the disk case by the long sides with fingers and thumb opposite, with center of your lower arm in line with the rotational axis of the disk inside so that when you torque the case by rotating your wrist, the case spins rapidly as possible, while the disk inside with its inertia tends to lag the case rotational snapping motion and hopefully breaks free. So place your thumb about 2 inches back from the SCSI end along a long edge, fingers on the long opposite side, arm down and disk parallel to the floor, twist as quickly and hard as you can (without spraining your wrist/elbow) both ways several times then see if it will spin up. For this little experiment it does not matter if the PC board faces up or down, just do not drop the drive. Probably a little elbow bend will be easier on your arm. Good luck being a jerk. [] ]'>
