But what do these messages "mean" on a technical level? CRC == checksum == the bits don't add up properly.

So reseat your cable, etc... but also get the vendor diags from their web site and run them on your drive ASAP. -ahd- -- Internet: ahd+sig@kew.com Voice: 781-279-9812 "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from a rigged demo."
