Ben, almost all of the messages that I have read about the FFS is that it is being used with a 2090 controller. Will it be compatible and speed up my C-LTD/Everex combination? I sure hope so! It would be a real drag 🙁 if I can't make use of the FFS when it comes out. Oh, I did get ahold of Everex today and these are the specs of the drive: 615 max cylinders 15ms Track-Track access time 17 tracks/cylinder As far as getting a defect list, well I was darn lucky to get the above information. Defect list, what defect list. Our drives are not defective! So I guess I will just experiment with the HighCyl number. The drive is working great as is, so maybe I should stick to my philosophy: If its not broke, don't fix it.
