Not only is each model's interface completely different (i.e. the 2x and 4x have different interfaces, and the 6x is even weirder, etc...) but it's really really timing sensitive, making any attempt to program the beast to be a big pain. The 6x was the fastest drive out when I stopped even trying, so things may have changed since then. As far as I know, there's no support anywhere for these. Kevin
