My half-full terabyte external hard drive seems to have died.  I opened 
the case and there doesn't seem to be anything visibly wrong with the 
drive, and it was working just fine earlier today (even ran a checkdisk 
to be sure)...it just doesn't spin up when powered on.  Hopefully it's 
just the enclosure.  Have ordered a new one, which will arrive in two or 
so days.

Will be *most* put out if the drive itself is dead, though losing a 
little over a year's worth of data and effort at organising things isn't 
as bad as eight years'.
