[comp.sys.amiga] 3.5" disk drives

I have had an Air Drive for about 2 years and have not used it much.  I
am now getting a lot of read write errors when I try and save something
to a disk.  This makes my disk unreadable.  It has happened on a few
different disks and with different programs so I am pretty sure it is the
drive.  I was wondering if there was anyway to get the drive checked out
or if it is better to just buy a new drive.  Any recommendations would
be appreciated.  You can send E-mail direct to me.  Thank you.

That's been happening to me too.  Both my drives have been throwing
errors onto disks.  Perhaps there is a new virus running about?  VirusX
hasn't found anything though.

Ideas?
