I know there are issues that make it awkward to support both drivers, but it's probably a good idea to keep the wd driver available for those who need it, even if it requires more work to get it going than it does to get the ata driver going. That said, this is one way to get the folks who're having trouble with the ata driver to get off their butts and provide Soren with feedback, so maybe it's not a bad idea to nuke wd after all. :-) Ciao, Sheldon.
