Thanks for correcting me. BTW, the German PC magazine C't made a harddisk test, they also gave information about the noise, the several disks produce (in DB and a sone factor). Be careful if you want to get a 4GB harddisk with 7200 U/min for home environment. I successfully sold a Grand Prix 4GB and bought 2 2GB IBM DORS 32160. ;) -- andreas@klemm.gtn.com /\/\___ Wiechers & Partner Datentechnik GmbH Andreas Klemm ___/\/\/ Support Unix -- andreas.klemm@wup.de pgp p-key http://www-swiss.ai.mit.edu/~bal/pks-toplev.html >>> powered by <<< ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/system/Printing/aps-491.tgz >>> FreeBSD <<<
