Hi there!

I have some questions to all of you in Netland:
How good is the Software that comes with Vortex' Datajet drives? It is
specially written for them and I do not know if it is comparable to
ICD Tools or SCSI Tools. In a German mag (PD Journal) I have read that
using SCSI Tools on Vortex drives may cause loss of data. Is this true?
If so, then why does this happen? Would you advise me to buy a new controller
instead of going on with the one built in?

                               Hope there is someone who knows.

                                         Thorsten Guenther
