I had a 40MB previously and then I got this IDE 105MB rodime thing. Since i got it ... the drive will just take it's time and be accessing something (as if it's having aproblem doing it). Nothing is corrupted, but it takes anywhere from 3-5 seconds for the light to go out. And this happens for no reason that I can find. Strange. Anyway ...my 2c worth. Dan
