- This message leads me to add to my post of:
- [
- Can you have SCSI reselection enabled on it? The older chip revision of
- the Bernoulli didn't allow you to select it(unless you wanted a crash).
- ]

- The Bernoulli 150 has a spin-down feature to help save the drive(which
- is good, IMO). It is after this spin-down occurs(20 or 30? minutes of
- no activity) that if you access the drive -- the system locks up. Does
- the JAZZ drive cause a machine lock-up in a similar situation?
-
- This is the reason that I'm quite reluctant to buy JAZZ as soon as they
- hit the vendors. (I still haven't got my lazy ass to send in the
- Bernoulli 150 for the revision.)
