(or any ST???N for that matter). I seem to have a problem with mine. When I power it up it goes through it's self check and then the LED blinks 8 times (which I think means failure to read disk's OS from the drive). Is this as bad as I think it is? (ie it will have to be replaced?). I would also be interested in knowing what type of controller people are using with the 296N. And if possible what numbers you are getting from diskperf. I will summerize the results.
