Well, 8/5/06 it happened again. My Iomega drive went dead. This is my 4th drive I have gone through. Iomega drives work great, but something happens to them.When an error occurs when trying to read/access your drive, that error may toast your drive. And when you have a toasted drive, when you try to read a disk, the disks become toast also.Something happens when accessing the drive to physically damage the drive. I do not understand how it happens, but it does.The drive usually works fine with no problems; however, on the occasion when you try to access drive and a computer error occurs, forget it it is done. It seems like if this happens and that happens when trying to access the drive, it is done.And once done there is NO fixing it. THere is NO fixing of the disks.I am not going with iomega anymore. I think it is time to try something new. I don't even have the will power to call Iomega.
