In this case, if / when you want to see something like that, please drop
me an email. Last year, after 3 moths of struggling I've changed an
Seagate 120G for a Maxtor and a few days ago I just discovered that a
40G Seagate from which I have been booting in the last 6 months just
doesn't like being non-boot disk, randomly corrupting data on it. And,
as Soren days "it work on windows"; actually it is now in a windows
machine and I'm coping data on it from my FreeBSD desktop over ftp.
