Just to bring some continuity to this story; last week I arranged a loan drive, with which to experiment. After some fruitless initial tinkering, I sent it back as faulty. The replacement arrived today, and it exhibits the same basic behaviour; ie. it no longer looks like an IDE disk at all. It _does_ respond to the ATAPI probe, however they appear to have removed the IDE emulation in current models. This of course means that you can't _boot_ from them anymore, which is a royal pain. It'd still be good if someone were to come forward and offer to add the necessary ATAPI support, of course. 8) mike
