Yup, I have got it formatted now so one partiton is 8gig big which should
hopefully do me for recording onto (prior to mp3'in). The main limitation
that bothers me is the 2gig filesize limit :-/ (I aint that fussed though)

I have discovered the main problem again with the drive and well I am not
too impressed with Elbox at the moment :-/

Ages ago I had problems with my Plextor 16/10/40 CDRW drive and the
PowerFlyer interface. After numerous emails explaining the problem to Elbox
they finally found out that what I was telling them did happen so they said
they were going to upgrade the Flyer software so it would work fine...
5months pass and nowt from them.. Now I have this new hard disk and guess
what - Its doing exactly the same thing again :-(( (will only work at PIO0)

Yup, got a Apollo060 at the moment but I'm considering getting a
Blizzard060+SCSI just so I can go over to SCSI instead.
