Yes, I couldn't it believe either.  That is why I tried so many
different approaches.  I blame MS for planting the seeds of OS distrust
;)  

Of course the story doesn't get better.  I went out today and got a new
WD HD.  My annoyance at finding a cheaper drive as I was walking out of
the story _in_ the store flyer, was soon over shadowed by the fact that
this drive also failed to work!!  I now suspect the controller, or the
fact that I did not listen to my teachers when they told me not to eat
paste...
