I phoned R^2 tech support today (it took me a while to get the sales
order numbers, since ljr was out until today), and they're going to
process RMAs for both the recent Seagate 4GB disk and the Micropolis
4GB disk on rosebud.  We should have the replacements within a few
days.

Unfortunately, the freshmen are already here, so we're going to be
creating a noticeable outage (and a bad first impression).  I'll
probably pick Sunday mornings at about 2am for the outages; hopefully
the Seagate replacement will arrive tomorrow or Saturday so that we
can do the swap this Sunday morning; otherwise we'll probably wait a
week for that.
