I was surprised to find that no low-level formatting was required. Is this usual, or is this something that the manufacturer or distributor of my disk just happened to do? It made the install wonderously easy - truly a plug 'n play event. All other issues aside, just the time saved paid for the difference between ESDI and SCSI. -- Chip Rosenthal | You aren't some icon carved out chip@chinacat.Unicom.COM | of soap, sent down here to clean Unicom Systems Development, 512-482-8260 | up my reputation. -John Hiatt
