- Well it might be an RDB thing that cyberstorms SCSI has probs with
- drives formatted under another type of controller this is possible.
- Put you old controller back in. Verify the whole drive. Make a complete
- backup of your system. Put the cyberstorm back in reformat the HD under
- that controller and restore your stuff. Should work if it's an RDB problem or
- just some quirk with cyberstorms SCSI controller.
