  • A member discussed a problem that he had with a Western Digital 1 Tb hard drive that he had been using for storage which apparently caused the desktop to freeze. After a hard shutdown, the computer restarted with no apparent damage to anything but the storage hard drive. (After checking the hard drive died and has subsequently been discarded.) Interesting since the hard drive was not that old and was not subject to multiple mounting and unmounting.
