I don't know about any firmware upgrade needed for this drive. BTW, it is almost impossible to get firmware upgrade in Russia or snail mail will costs so much money as compared to new device price. How do you know that firmware upgrade needed for this drive? Could you please resend me your sources? Needless to say that it works OK under Win95. I mention this fact because we need to put some warning about firmware upgrade needed for this drive, or we'll have many users complaints, this model is very popular at least in Russia. Could you please add device flags to turn tagged queuing on per-drive basis instead on for whole controller? My second drive is new IBM disk which works well with tagged queueing and I not want to turn it off for this drive too. -- Andrey A. Chernov <ache@nagual.ru> http://www.nagual.ru/~ache/
