I don't think Macs send a motor start signal at all. (With the possible exception of the dual channel PDS Fast SCSI II card for the Quadra 900/950. Three SCSI busses and not enough room inside to load them all up!) Third party SCSI cards may, dunno if any NuBus ones like the ATTO or Jackhammer do. ===== http://www.junkscience.com "All the Junk that's fit to Debunk!" __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
