Does it sound like it's spinning up, reading a little, stopping, then spinning up again?

I once had a Creative drive which was actually a rebadged Samsung. The disc is held onto the drive spindle by a metal spring clip. Over time this spring weakens causing the disc to fly up off the spindle as it speeds up (the spinning disc acts something like an aircraft wing). A temporary cure for this problem is to take the drive apart and bend the clip back into shape, but I found that it wouldn't last long like this. The permanent cure was to replace the drive with a Toshiba. The new drive has lasted five years in my possession and I've now sold the system on.

Stability. What an interesting concept. -- Chris Maunder
