   I am interested in the SEAGATE ST1144A IDE drive.  Is anyone using this
drive?  How do you like it?

	Thanks,

	Bill

I've been using mine for a few months with no problem.  However, I ran norton
disk doctor for the first time today and got 8.9 MB of bad blocks.  They are
the last 8.9 MB on the disk.  Is this normal?  Since I have a 1 year warranty 
on the drive should I get it replaced?
