Malone) Distribution: na Organization: Navy Personnel R&D Center, San Diego Lines: 24 An earlier posting indicated that some users have had problems with the Speed Disk (SD) program provided with NORTON Utilities. I cannot locate that posting and today I heard that several Zenith 248's had their hard disks wiped out while using SD. I would like to verify that there is in fact a problem with this utility, what version(s) are involved, has it been fixed, what versions are safe, does it affect only certain hardware configurations (if so, please specify which), etc. _ _ _ _ ' ) ) ) (/ / / / __.
