Spectre GCR on the other hand will allow you to pop a straight MAC disk into the ST disk drive and do reads and writes at MAC speed or better! If you are also interested in a disk copier and using 5.25 format disks, then Discovery is your ticket. Its not the nicest device around in terms of user friendliness and the sofnewes protected disks. Peter Szymonik Xorg@cup.portal.com
