Corrupted filesystems, or borked operating systems, but not bad
drives.  If the failure was not caused by the drive itself, and I can
prove that by running all the diagnostics, then it is safe to reuse
the drive.

Thank You!  I appreciate your encouragement.

A significant difference between all my articles and all my email list
posts, is that I do take the time to research the articles.  List
posting are generally written directly from memory with no research at
all.

So thanks for setting me straight on all that.  I'll make sure to get it right.
