Dom, I had a very small – about 1M – boot sector on the Rodime drive, and then the rest of the boot process goes onto the FFS part of the drive. The drive is actually 43M instead of 40, so you don't really miss a lot there. I did not notice it being slow. Also, I didn't notice problems with overscan, but then – I rarely use overscan. I thought there was a program that cured that problem, though, and that it had been incorporated into the later models. Wish I knew more about this, but I don't. As for crashes – I had more with the 2500/2091 than with the 2000HD/2090A for quite a long while. A bit of work, and a different Agnus chip changed that, and now I'd say both machines behave in about the same way for me. SCSI drives are usually faster than ST drives, and the SCSI is a rather loose standard of drives that should work on any machine. Problem is, the standard is not always implemented the same way. Surely some others will chime in and give you more information here. Betty
