Copying is taking forever. I think the Empeg has the same transfer rate as the MFM drive out of my old XT. Anyway... When I removed the IBM drive that came with the Empeg, it was physically making a noise as I moved it. When I turn it upside down, it sounds like something is loose inside the drive. Luckily the drive seems to be working as I am copying from the old drive to the new (30GB Fujitsu from compgeeks) as I'm typing this.

I can't imagine this is normal as I have owned laptops with IBM drives and would have noticed that. If the drive is bad, can I send it back to IBM like you would with a regular IDE drive?

While I'm waiting I uploaded some images:
