I'm not sure if mentioned this, but the "slow hard drive"
problem also exists using the other SCSI CDRW, the Yamaha
8424sz. So the solution would be.... taking out both drives?
I will be more than happy to remove the Yamaha since I've had
some bad burns with it. Will that solve it?
Thank you very much for your time.
