While this is true to mount a drive at startup, SCSI drives in Macs don't have to have autostart enabled. I have a 73GB Maxtor 10K drive with autostart disabled that I only use for digital audio. When I need it, I just launch Drive Setup and mount the drive. Never fails. Rick -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
