If there are no important programs on it, try reformatting it attached to a Classic. Use that Micronet Utility, if it's an older version. Or Download Lido 7.56 from somewhere and try that. It may be an issue involving the use of the PPC to format that drive, or some of your Classics may have SCSI issues. Jeff -- Compact Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/>.
