Hmmm. The XT-3280 I bought from Bill Seymour is running like a charm. I had
absolutely no trouble connecting it to my A2090. The only thing I'm still
wondering about is that I had to specify 25 BlocksPerTrack, while in the
manual it said the drive had 26 BPT. I'm still waiting for the answer from
Bill on that one.
