Hi, I've been running a "newly" installed Western Digital EIDE drive w/ OS9.1 installed on one of its partitions for a little over a year now on my S900 and have been getting increasingly frequent displayed messages that say "There is something wrong w/ the disk "name". Some information may have been lost. Check any recently-used files for data loss, and use a disk-repair program on the disk." It names alternately, two of the partitions on the EIDE drive, the one containing the system and the one containing the application I'm using at the time (although it seems mostly to occur when I'm running Flash for some reason). I've run Norton on the drive but nothing shows up as being wrong. Tonight I went to Apple System Profiler and saw that the EIDE drive (which I boot up from) has the same ID# (0) as the original drive that came w/ the computer, a 2GB Quantum Fireball that also has the ID# of 0. I understand that this can cause problems in performance and wonder if the two devices having the same SCSI ID# may be the source of this repeatedly displayed message and maybe some other degraded performance that I'm not even aware of. I would like to change the ID# of the original drive that came w/ the S900 but don't know how to go about it, what to change it to or if changing it will create any other problems that I am not considering. Can anyone advise me how to proceed at this point? Thanks in advance for any help anyone can offer.
