I have had a CMS Pro43-II since august of this year in my Mac II and other than needing to zap the pram a couple of times due to rabid non Mac II compatible software, my hard disk has performed very nicely. I am curious to know if my hard drive autoparks at power down though as the manual doesn't mention it and the utility program is for all of CMS's drives. A recent article in Macworld on hard drives for the macs said it DID autopark so I feel a little better, but 'I gots to know' to quote a line from a Clint Eastwood movie. I am also curious to know if there are any software updates to the utilities or drivers (my copy says version 3.2F on the disk). This is an internal drive made by Seagate I think that has 28ms access time. reply to: Fons@uiucvmd (bitnet) fons@vmd.cso.uiuc.edu (internet) fons%vmd@uiuc.csnet (csnet) ihnp4!uiucuxc!fons@vmd (usenet)
