If you have a second (identical) drive, and the chips on the card (inside
drive case) are socketed, just swap chips to find the bad ones.
BEFORE YOU START!!!!!!!!!!   MAKE SEVERAL COPIES OF A DISK SO YOU CAN TO
CHECK IF THE DRIVE IS FIXED AND WILL BOOT.
Otherwise you may end up screwing up all your "master" disks.
Bad drives OFTEN eat disk's data!!!
Drives are USUALLY easy to fix.
