Mine was stripped from an AT&T box. I read and write find. I had some problems with it before but after getting my kernel majorly patched with all the patches that have come along it is working. You must configure your kernel to recognize the drive. Assuming you have the same controller as I and need to know I can provide you with Jumper settings to set your address to 0x300 and irq to whatever(5?) -- Chris tjon@plains.nodak.edu Christopher C.
