"Clearly not" Ian
Unfortunately if a drive failed according to MD 600 diagnostics either LED 4 or 5 should be illuminated, 4 for left or 5 for right hand drive. My experience on rebooting the suspect MD 600 was that the opposite drive of the pair LED could be illuminated on the completed reboot. Hence the need to check both drives with Seagate Tools before making any assumption. Most disconcerting.
It is always good to keep a record of the number of albums stored on MD 600's to be sure that you know what your are looking for, this is especially relevant if you run more than one.
