However, I do know that I was able to make use of a Maxtor drive with 280Mb with a SCSI adaptor and software drivers from Future Domain in Tustin California. I was able to treat the entire disk as my D: drive. The Future Domain software creates larger sectors on the drive. If that approach makes sense for your application you should check them out. They stand behind their products. Herb Lison
