Thanks for the tip Dennis. Unfortunately, it's not a free upgrade in my case as the original HDST v3.5 came OEM with my FireWire drive ... Intech will not allow you to download the free upgrade unless you have a serial number for their retail version. It does appear that this >might< address the issue I'm having with OS9.2.2 and my drive, in particular: > 3) Changed partion map structure so that MacOS X 10.1 installation will no > longer modify our partition scheme.

One of the error messages I get consistently (I think it's in DiskWarrior) has to do with the partition map not being valid. It's just rather odd that I didn't have a problem with this for several months while working with the same systems. I'm not inclined to spend the money on the upgrade unless I >know< it will solve the problem. Unfortunately they don't have a demo version of HDST (like they do with CD/DVD Speedtools) so I'm unable to verify if it will solve the problem - it would be certainly worth the upgrade if it I was sure that it would work. -- Gregg -- SuperMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
