[comp.os.cpm] Osborne I malady

I have an Osborne I SS/DD 80-col mod. computer that I'm not using very much,
and one of the reasons is because it has a habit of munching sectors about
once an hour (when it writes to disk, of course).  More often than not, it
does it to the directory.  Have any of you Ozzie owners come across this
sort of thing in the past?  I'm wondering if it's going to cost much $$$
to get it fixed.  Yes, I've already cleaned the heads.  It happens with
both drives, so my guess is that it's not any moving parts.  And it does
it regardless of how long it's been running.  And yes, I have the Executive
fan installed.
