I reformatted mine when I switched from the CMS SCSI to the Apple DMA SCSI
adapter.  That's because the two interfaces used different formats on the
drive.

I also reformatted the other night because I wanted to change the interleave
from the "mystery" interleave the High Speed SCSI disk left me with to a 2:1
interleave.  The 2:1 that ADU leaves me with is slightly faster.

Speaking of interleave, how does one go about getting a 5:1 or 7:1 interleave
on the new DMA SCSI card?  I can't find a utility that will recognize the
DMA card.

As for locking up, nope, it's never happened.
