I know it is old! It has a full height 30MB drive. What it has begun doing is hanging up during boot the first time I turn it on. After the memory test it just hangs. If I then power it off and power it back on, then it will work. I can hear it spin up and make a few noises at the end of the spin up cycle, maybe I should listen closer to the first time I power it up to see if it sounds different. If I run scandisk with s surface test is always passes fine. It just started doing this in the last few months, though the first time i got it, it was having problems spinning up until repeating cycling finally got it to do it and I ran it upside down because of someones tip to try to distribute the bearing oil/grease. I could run it upside down again for 24 hours if that would help.
