Hello. I bought EBC-3410 to install Linux on it. After installation all necessary periphery, including old 2GB HDD I installed Debian. It worked two days and after that HDD failed. Diagnostics said, that it had been totally damaged. I replaced it by new 40GB Maxtore, bought "Red Hat" for $50 and continued my studies. After several attempts the installation program told me that my HDD is bad. I installed it to another computer, ran MAXTORE disk diagnostic utility and discovered that the HDD is nonrecoverable. I reread the EBC-3410 datasheet, but did not find any warnings or special instructions about HDDs. Did anybody have such a problem? Can it be so that the SBC somehow spoils HDDs? Maybe I missed something in the datasheet? Thanks, Alex
