Well, I finally got my hard drive back from Seagate - apparently, it was a know fault with the type of drive and could be fixed by re-flashing it's bios. It still works, so the first thing I did once it was back in my PC was to back all my stuff up. It's nice to be using a keyboard and mouse again that don't stick! I'm just a little jealous of all the travelling the drive has been doing though, over the last two weeks it has been to London, Amsterdam, Arnhem and Nottingham!
