I suspect the problem extends to the 40 meg drives as well. I've
got a brand new II-CX (i.e. about 2 weeks old) with the Apple/Quantum
internal drive. It's already failed to spin up on 2 or 3 occasions.
Sometimes just hitting the reset switch gets it going, sometimes booting
off a floppy does the trick.
