Yes, same thing when I insert in other drive.
Also if I power up with a disk inside the LED says that it's booting the OS but nothing ever happens.
ebay seller insists all worked fine prior to shipping and has been very helpful in trouble shooting but I think I am at an impasse.
Other than being old, is the low serial # a really bad thing?
thx
