Added 2nd IDE-HD as slave to A-4000..Master Seagate st3144AT rev 1 Quantum LP240A GM240A01x Rev 5.6 Drive installation easy. Problems: 1- C= manual mentions dip switches must be changed for master and slave, but dosen't tell you which ones to change on master. 2- Data corruption on large files. Easily fixed by changing the MAX TRANSFER to "=0xffff". This problem I believe is shared by other drive configurations and M-T change might be different.. Another well kept secret… Eddie.Ski
