I know this is getting depressing (or at least boring) but to keep people
informed -- Jasmine was informed monday to return the drive to ComputerWare
unrepaired. They confirmed that it was shipped monday. It is now Friday, and
ComputerWare hasn't seen it yet (they warned me about this. "shipped today"
implies it was sent to shipping -- where it's been known to sit for up to
two weeks).

So my drive has been dead over a month, is still dead, will be dead
indefinitely, and I don't even know when I'll get it back because it's lost
in some pigeonhole at Jasmine. I'm glad that disk drives aren't a critical
part of a computer system. If I was depending on this for my livelihood, I
might be upset.
