OK, I did this once too. I once had the extreme pleasure of finding a
uVax3100+VS3100 left out on the curb with the trash. Turned out they
were both filled with fine silt. I figured that it could've been 1 of two
possibilities: We had a bad hurricane 2 years ago that probably flooded
the guy's basement (or, his frustruated wife could've frisbee'd the things
into a lake <g>). Anyway Dr. John was too late. Some fragile parts had
corroded through and there was residual water in the HDD's.
But I tried anyway. </Ramble off>.
