He felt confident his disk would prevent future damage, but was willing to concede some hub tabs may already be damaged. However, he reported that even given this assumption, he had seen no failures. Maybe a few reports eventually came in. If anyone has a link to those reports, I'd be interested in seeing them.

I feel good about my choice. Without play in the hole, I don't worry about failure.

This.

My hub also appeared undamaged, so I choose to be unworried about it.
