Just for yucks, I tried to format my old Rodime 203E which I had in D: when I got the OMTI controller. Suprised the hell out of me when not only did it format, but all the errors I had been getting with my IBM controller went away - 6 months later, I haven't seen an error on either drive! (I used to get them all the time on the Rodime, and very occasionally on the Priam.) Anyone for 650K/sec at 60msec? -- jtara%m-net@umix.cc.umich.edu ihnp4!dwon!m-net!jtara "If this is all a dream, I can't wait to see what it's like when I wake up." - Explorers
