Thanks for the great overview/info. I guess i can hope that my disk will tell me something.

The part about bashing was not directed at you, just a general note to get those extra mails out of the way. Sorry if it came out wrong. I totally agree about the price being insane. Some people swear by SCSI usually having better quality parts, no idea on how much that corresponds to the truth tho. / Jonas Lund
