No spare disks (and the HDDs that I've got are 3.5" anyway, so wouldn't
work with the adapter).  Had I thought about it, I might have been able
to try the SSD in the adapter for the HDD that I'm using on another PI,
but it is too late for that now.

No noticeable change in temperature.

The disk plugs into the connector, and then a lid slides on over the
top, and it all appears to be secure, before connecting it up, I tried
shaking the housing, and there was no sign of anything moving (and I
looked inside again afterwards), so nothing obviously wrong with the
assembly.

I'm gong to be off line for a couple of weeks, so I'll catch up with any
further ideas when I get back.  Thanks to everyone for the input.
