I recently had an old Jasmine Direct Drive 40 hard drive crash. The
hardware is totally unresponsive.
The diagnostics return "Drive not ready". When I try to format, it makes
a funny noise and just
stops.

I've looked around for someone who would repair it, but they all quoted
me prices over $300! A 
new one with a 2 yr. warranty is only $450! I called Microtech, Jasmine
and Mirror Technologies.

Does anyone have any better ideas? I can't believe I have no choice but
to buy another one.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Jeff
