And I thought it was just the usual optical illusion, when I saw the large looking moon in the horizon.
On the hard drive issue, I was wondering if the manufacturer diagnostic tools still work. Though I've had those to lock up as well... Might be interesting to run Spinrite on it too, though it might choke on the large drive size. And it has a price tag attached to it too. And in the end, full reformat should do the same trick anyways, unless there's some progressing physical damage on the platters.
