I CAN hear the hard disk rotating now, but I still get the
"Can't Recal:Response = 4" message when I try anything, including
parking the heads. The disk IS a Hitachi, not the feared Seagate
(with no head self-parking)
I have some new hard disks on the way, maybe those babys'll
make tracking this down easier.

it's forgotten how! It just keeps saying it can't recall,
and it's forgotten how to spell, too!"
