Looked like the drive was doomed as it was spinning up and down. Prior weeks it had simple random errors. Opened the case and pulled the power plug from the drive. It came out too easily. Crimped the pins a bit with needle nose pliers. Its been running perfectly the past month. One day when "camcontrol defects" works with IBM drives (and 1st generation Adaptec 2940 in this case), then I'll see how many bad blocks are in the grown list. Its partly my fault for camcontrol not working as I haven't snipped the error messages and forwarded them to the appropriate places. Altho I have done same for Symbios/NCR and IBM combination. -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@nospam.hiwaay.net ===================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.
