Hello,
    Regarding the Miniscribe 3675 and its timed park feature.. I have 

heard that after using this option the drive develops bad sectors,etc. 
I don't know if it is true.  I do know that I had a Miniscribe 3425 
(the 20 meg drive) and I believe I had the autopark jumper on (because 

I had a red LED go on every once and awhile).  After a month or so, 
my drive stopped working.  I do not know if it was do to the parking 
but in other conferences I have been warned not to use it (so I don't 
on my 3650).
 
                        Wayne
