Hmm. I've got a fairly new 40 gig partition (well, ALMOST 40 g),
with about 10-25 G in it already. Moderately active partition,
also.
Last time the machine had the power plug pulled by accident (don't
ask ;-) it took less than 15 minutes (I was NOT paying too much
attention, coulda been less), and that includes a 10 G AND a
20 G (I think - but the machine is off right now - I'm shuffling
my office ;-) drive in addition.
30 minutes - something is wrong there....
