I'll have another look at it, but my hopes are _very_ low, as I have
actually spent hours with the uploader and the manual, without any success.
The problem is also that there are several versions of the uploader
around, but none comes from Oxsemi direct.
I'll let you know what I find.

Well, I already had the uploader you pointed me to. Unfortunately this
will not do. It can update firmware, but it won't work if the firmware
chip is blank, as it seems to be here. I am not really sure how this
happened but the bridge is recognized by the uploaders, but they simply
cannot

My first choice for defragging a drive is Norton Speed Disk. I own
DiskWarrior and TechTool Pro, but for defragging...you can't beat Speed
Disk.

Hi Johannas and Simon,
You have inspired me to do some homework for the day when speed disk
goes away :-) I found this:

See what you think...expecially the Disk Defrag utility. I haven't
used this nor do I know anyone who has, but it looks interesting.
Yes, I forgot about these. I actually own a copy of HDSpeedTools for
MacOS 9. Thing is, I am a little anoyed about their update policy. When
I bought the product it said Free Updates for Live just as it does
now. Only HDSpeedTools for OS X are not actually the same product. So I

If anyone knows how to re-flash an Oxford Firewire enclosure, I'd like
to know. I seem to have destroyed one by accident (by flashing the wrong
firmware I guess), and there doesn't seem to be a way to get it back.
Annoying.
I am open for any experiment, as I have since

Sorry, this is a little off-topic, but I know there are some people here
with more knowledge on the subject than myself:
I am in fo a new Disk Maintenance software. As far as I can see there
are basically two choices:
DiskWarrior
Techtool Pro
Which one would you recommend?

My users group members generally suggest Disk Warrior, and also suggest
using Apple's tools first, again, generally. http://planetmug.org

Johannes,
Is a well know fact that the best way to defragment a disk is to copy all
contents to another one (something that you should have done anyway), erase
the disk and copy back the information.
And the price is fair ;)

Sure, only sometimes that is not an option. And since it seems it is a
good idea to actually own a DiskRepair Utility I am quite happy to buy one.
Also, I have been told, and at least partly believe this, that when you
actually use a defragging utility you can avoid certain fragmentation

Things have changed *a lot* with OSX - are you sure you need to defragment?

It is nonsense to believe Apple one minute that OS X eliminates all
needs for defragmentation. It is true to a certain extend that MacOS X
has better built-in file maintenance than OS 9, and it does some
rudimentary defragmentation. For many people this will be just fine.
It's not nonsense
Hi Johannes,
I agree. I think that Disk Warrior is the best one if you are going
to only choose one. But they all do different things as Simon
mentioned. So if you ever get into a spot where Disk Warrior isn't
fixing the problem you can try another at that time. I usually try

Well, you are certainly the first person I know who even considers
Norton any more. I can't speak from my own experience (I last used
Norton in the old OS 9 days) but I certainly know a lot of people for
whom Norton has actually created more problems than it ever solved, and
they all warn from
