Dave Uhring:
 |CRC's (16 bit cyclic redundancy check characters) have been done on 
 |controllers since we had to use floppies.  The first Winchester drive 
 |interface I ever designed back in 1979 had a Fairchild 9401 (IIRC) CRC 
 |generator chip on it.  The writes are failing.  You "may" have marginal 
 |cabling or loose or corroded connectors.
 |
 |If you wish to keep using the drive, replace the cable and in doing so 
 |your contacts will also wipe clean.

Will do.  Thanks.

Randall
