I recently picked up a 30GB Notebook drive made by Seagate that when it was in somone's laptop had had coca cola spilled on to it. The drive itself has dried cola around the ide pins. The drive spins up and is detected in BIOS. I was wondering if any of our forum members out there might have a solution that would clean the cola off without too much risk of damaging the drive? Thanks.

Some alcohol and a few qtips should work, and be safe, depending on how much soda gunk is left. Dip a tip and scrub and repeat until the soda corpse is gone. It would dry clean and leave no residue.
