Last spring I had a hard drive die so I sent my 8500 to a Mac tech for a new
drive. After waiting like forever, I got the machine back. It has never really
run as smoothly as it did before the main hard drive crashed. I have two back up
2G hard drives as well. The main drive is a 4G. I recently noticed when I was
once again running Norton's Disk Doctor that the main drive is formatted as HFS
while the back up drives are HFS+.
Does this make a difference? I am running OS 9.1 with 225 MB of RAM and a
Crescendo G3 card. I seen to have the most problems with Photoshop or Netscape.
The computer just stops. The mouse moves but I can't get it to respond.
I'm beginning to think I was sold a bum drive. It's a Seagate SX1515ON.
