> YMMV. The problem was that the previous owner had made some SCSI mode page adjustments to the drive that I had to reverse. It isn't a characteristic of the drive model, just something you should be aware of when you're bidding on eBay hard disks of any type. Somewhere on Google I found that some RAID arrays use 520 byte sectors and use some of that for parity information, and some AV studios use different sector sizes to speed up disk access for AV tasks. I'm not clear on how that works exactly, but the end result is that the drives give unsupported sector size errors to Apple HD SC setup, Apple Drive Setup, and the Linux hard disk driver.
Hope that clears up any confusion. -Drew -- SuperMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
