Phil, This is probably the best most complete information on the B&W rev 1 and rev 2. This site is a good source of info on most Mac upgrade issues. Check these links. The first is for the Tips on the B&W, the second is your drive data corruption problem, the third is on how to verify the revision version of your B&W by checking the IDE controller chip. Pictures are included. http://www.xlr8yourmac.com/G3-ZONE/yosemite/index.html http://www.xlr8yourmac.com/G3-ZONE/yosemite/IDE/index.html. http://www.xlr8yourmac.com/G3-ZONE/yosemite/newfeatures.html Thanks, Wade A.
