I have an UltraStar 2XP and an UltraStar 9ZX - (4.5/9Gb respectively). They are 'very fast' drives, the EZ especially - both appear to work with -current and CAM with no problems... Both report to be using 64 tag's after having been 'hammered' by a MakeWorld etc. In fact - I'd probably go as far as saying, they are the best drives on my system at the moment (out of our of Seagate, Quantum, Maxtor & WesternDigi) -Kp To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
