I have a 520 ST, a single sided disk and a double sided disk. The double sided disk is drive A and the single sided disk is drive B. Whenever I access drive A, drive B spins also. Should this be? Is this harmful? The drive light on B does not come on, but if I have a disk in there, I can hear it spinning. If I access drive B, drive A does not spin. Anyone know what is going on? -- ========================================================================= = Andrew Krieg The Marvel Historian = = G.E.
