I am having a problem with my hard disk system: an  A2090 controler and
seagate st277N drive (I think, could be st227N - it is 65 meg's).  Whenever
I try to store a high resolution file (640x200, 640x400, etc.) I receive a
complaint about disk errors.  This brings a requestor to the screen, I then
hit RETRY and it succeeds (since the lo-res workbench screen is now up front).
Anyway, I think this is a familiar problem, my question is what to do?
Does these problem mean I have an old hard disk driver?  Is it fixed by
a new one?  If so, how do I get a copy of the new one (and while I'm
complaining, why didn't the new one come with my controller)?

Thanks in advance for any help.
