I own a Supra Hard Disk that exhibits a similar problem.  I
bravely opened it up expecting to change the battery.  I found
that the battery was a soldered lithium job.  I called Supra to
obtain a replacement or find the cost of repair.  According to
the Supra rep (Keith, I think), they received a shipment of
defective clock chips late last year (1988).  The chips have the
nasty habit of draining the battery.  Supra is repairing the
problem at their expense, even if your unit is out of warranty!

Contact Supra at 503/967-9081 for more information and the details
as to the correct procedure to follow.  Supra again gets my vote
as one of the best companies in the ST marketplace.
