[comp.sys.atari.st] Noisy Drive

Hello Out There...

I have a VERY noisy internal drive in my 1040st which is about 2 
1/2 years old now.  Is there any way to quiet it?  Will putting a 
light oil on the "bars" that the head slides on help?  Is this bad 
for the drive?  The drive also seems to be "sluggish".  Any
suggestions?  

NEWS:  I don't know if any of you have heard about this or not, I 
haven't seen any messages about it yet.  
ST World says that at CeBIT89 Atari announced the new MEGA ST1... 
I don't know if this means that they're droping the 1040st and the 
520st or not, it didn'tay.  Also a ST compatable laptop, and a 
PC laptop.  -  Now to see if any of these make it to the U.S. 
market.
