I see, a pity then :-( I don't know when it happened, you can probably tell me. I've seen that difference in uears from 1993 to, say 2001 or so. Maxtor have been better throughout all this time, up to now. (I almost stopped buying Seagate at then end of the 90s, except if a *very* good price was out at the time) -- Ciao, Dario -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
