FWIW, my drive cleaning prolly added a few more years to the drive. One question though - I don't believe I've wiped off any grease that I've noticed, though would it be a good idea to spray certain areas with WD-40 or the like?
The original grease should still be doing its job. WD-40 would be a bad idea, it's not designed to stick around long, and it's far too thin anyway.
Glad you found the culprit though. So in the end was it magnetic or RF interference causing the problem? I know you said magnetic, but how did you come to this conclusion (not that it matters, just curiosity I suppose)? :laugh1:
