- It is a well known problem that MultiDisk150's hang when being used with
- re-selection. Turn re-selection "off" on the Bernoulli and you shouldn't
- have any more problems.
-
- I have also heard that IOmega has a ROM upgrade that will also solve this
- problem. But since my controller doesn't have re-selection I have not had
- any problems so I have never bothered with the firmware upgrade. Thus I
- can't comment on how well it fixes things.
