the Maxtor seems ok enough, it even comes on again fairly regular now after having abandoned me for a few months… <g> The first symptoms back then really were that I had to warm-boot after a cold-boot if I wanted the Maxtor a appear, but a short time later the Maxtor wouldn't start at all. Sometimes, after having worked on the machine for a few hours, suddenly the Maxtor would spin up, more often than not if I had just inserted a floppy disk(?!)… On the other hand, it would just as well stop somewhere in the middle of something and not come on again. What about "termination resistors" or whatever these are called? I used to have the Maxtor as my only drive and just sort of plonked the Quantum in between the host adaptor and the Maxtor without changing anything on the drives or the hast adaptor. SHOULD I have done something? // Chris coming in from Germany \X/ on AutoPilot 1.061……….
