Brian--

Owls told us to buy a gx240 for testing.  We bought it, we have it, but
the drive has gone terminal and is making crunchy sounds.  It's less than
a year old and is under warantee, but should probably be under hardware
support for the long term.

What should I do with it?  It's pretty important get it back online ASAP,
but on the other hand, it's a fairly generic 20GB IDE disk (a WD200), so
something for a gx150 would work, too.

serial number: JCYYY01

thanks,
andrew
