I just checked, and you're right, there is no 'Find Bad Blocks'. I think what you have to do is run a 'Verify Data', and then add those blocks to the list manually. This is, of course, a moot point with SCSI devices, as they will almost always do the bad block remapping 'on the fly'. (And, most new drives these days will have few, if any, bad block in their defect list anyway.) Just out of curiosity, when looking at the partition window for the cart, have you checked the 'Change…' Filesystem options? You might want to verify that you're using the right FileSystem, with appropriate masks, etc. (Yes, I _am_ grasping at straws here…) The saga continues….. Erik Flom
