- I have a DEC RZ23 that refuses to spin up. I remember someone posting
- information about needing to set the spinup NVRAM bit on these drives, but
- didn't say how. Could someone please tell me what command I need to send
- and how I send it.
- My DTC3280 controller finds the disk even though it does not spin up
- and reports it as a "DEC RZ23 (C) DEC0A18".
- I have a diagnostic program that came with the controller that will format
- and send mode sense and mode select commands. Is this what I need? Or
- will I need another SCSI command program?
- Thanks,
- -Ben
