Has any one ever tried to use this contorller with there coco3 system before? If so what were the answers you supplied to DDMAKER? I do not have any specs on the controller so I think the problem is the step rate, but I am not sure. When I try to format the hd, when I respond to the physical and logical verify with a YES, it goes for a while (15 mins) then the drive goes strange, the heads seam to continuily park themselves over and over again, so then I reboot?
