Once Upon A Time Adaptec (1540 non-A, B, or C) did something special while formatting the drive. Mine didn't like any HD attached that had not been formated with EZSCSI. I have not found SCSI hard drives to be portable between PC's using different SCSI controllers. On Macintosh's this is trivial. -- David Kelly N4HHE, n4hhe@amsat.org, dkelly@iquest.com ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.
