(Except cable problems.) However, I have been careful not to mix/match manufacturers. Again, I am not religiously pro or against SCSI or IDE. I have had problems with HP drives also. I have heard of problems running the latest Buslogic SCSI interfaces also (they don't work on FreeBSD, without a new driver.) It is all how you look at the troubles with the respective interfaces. -- John dyson@freebsd.org jdyson@nc.com
