After coming back home after a nice though wet holiday last week
I turned on my Lisa. All of a sudden the Lisa's internal harddisk
made a noise like a saw-mill... Somehow the drive's heads are in
contact with the disk, I don't know what caused this. Could it be
that this problem is caused by the workmen repairing the roof of
my flat? This causes quite heavy vibrations all through the building.

Well, my harddisk is broken beyond repair. Is there any place where
I can get a new Lisa internal harddisk? Are there any other drives
which can be connected to the Lisa? (I heard a rumour that there's
a type of harddisk found in some of the older IBM PC's that can be
connected to the Lisa) Has anyone got a spare 10MB profile which I 
could buy? What else (besides heavy vibrations) could have caused
this?

ps: and of course I didn't make a back-up last week :(
