Hi, Larry;
I have the bundle you are looking at, and when everything works, it's
great. I haven't been able to pin down my problem source yet, but it seems
to be some kind of IRQ/DMA/Address conflict. My biggest problem is not
being able to get through to Creative Labs for any Support.
I have noticed a LOT of people NOT having similar problems, so I think it's
in my system somewhere. I have also noticed people having problems with
other drives, so it's not much to judge by. My main point would be that I
have no problems with the unit's capabilities. They seem more than
adequate for what I can find to use it with. Don't go strictly by price
for the purchase though. You may want to consider the particular vendor's
support capabilities.
I have also heard unofficial rumors that there will be a new SBPro soon
with 16-bit audio and a standard(?) SCSI interface. Personally, I don't
believe in waiting for rumors to become reality. It usually takes a long
time and costs a fortune!<g>
Hope that helps you. If you have any specific questions, just ask.
John
