It's a Seagate ST31230N. I tried the button called Low Level Format in
HDToolBox (both versions) and Initialize in ScsiTools, and neither worked. The
drive didn't appear on my Workbench, so I couldn't try the format command. I
was able to define partitions based on the blocks per track and so on info I
entered in Change Drive Type, but I wasn't able to save ANYTHING to the drive.
I probably do have a bum drive, because I tried it on 2 different controllers
with 3 different programs as well as ProbeSCSI, which reported read errors, but
if you have any more info, HIT ME! <g>
