- I got this drive early May, and it was working. When I wanted to run speedsys on it a few days ago to add it to my spreadsheet, well… it wasn’t working anymore. I thought IBM drives pre-75GXP were good but my luck with them hasn’t been that great.
On startup it sounds like it has problems with spinning but I've seen many more IBM's do that, still it sucks to see it dead, especially with fact that it worked at first.
Also, congratulations for 2000 subs!
I think it's normal for IBMs to spin up like that, but yeah it sucks that it died despite working fine like 2 weeks prior.
thank you!
My luck with these hasn't been that great either. They were really great drives when they were new but now it seems like a lot of them are failing in odd ways like this to where the drive was working just fine, then you go to use it one day, and it is just dead. I vaguely recall some of these drives did have problems with somehow corrupting the service area, but not sure how true it is. This one does sound like it is not reading what it likes though.
Yeah it's a bummer, I got this drive and it worked, and like 2 weeks later it was already dead. I wonder once I finally try to make a new collection video how many drives I will find to have died while sitting in my collection since the last one.
@@arnlol I am excited for when that video does come out! Not only that, but having such a large sample size of older drives will show how likely maybe some are to die from sitting or just randomly. Wonder how many at this point you have that worked fine then failed? Or is it too many to count on two hands? I hope not too many as that is not fun when something that was working just fine fails so suddenly.
@@cdos9186I don’t think it’s that many actually, but I actually don’t know. I probably have more drives that seemed to work at first then failed quickly after or while testing like that one than drives I had that worked, entered in the collection then died when I tested them later.
I had this drive back in the day. Was fast and quiet. Worked good for a secondary PC. A shame it has failed.
Yeah I think IBM drives were decently fast and I guess that one must have been a bit quieter compared to ball bearings 7200 RPM ones. It's annoying that it failed when it was working like 2 weeks prior to when I recorded that.
this was my old drive in my first PC
i remember banging the case to get it to work again xddd
Now that doesn't sound normal! I wonder what was up with it that hitting it allowed it to work again, usually shocks aren't good for hard drives

Yeah...
even the spindle acts weird
Does it? Seems normal to me idk
@@arnlol yea, it twitches a bit before spinning
