Drive Setup still has all the old, obsolete SCSI drives enumerated therein. Usually, it is possible to support a normally unsupported drive by duplicating the entry for, say, a Seagate ST-15150N, which is a supported drive, insert that copy into the drive table as ID=128, and then modify the identity string to specify the (unsupported) drive you have. I have been able to support all kinds of OEM drives, like those normally supplied in arrays, in this way. Netapp-branded, but Seagate-made 10,000 rpm 36 GB LVD/SE drives have been particularly good when supported thusly. For "difficult" cases, I use Hard Drive Speedtools ... but only as a last resort. -- PowerBooks is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
