I need to know (in general) how to format a SCSI disk with an Adaptec 1542 controller. I really don't even know how low-level formats work for SCSI drives...... any helpful information? Thanks -- Heath Roberts NCSU Computer and Technologies Theme Program barefoot@catt.ncsu.edu

You can call adaptec's bbs at (408)945-7727 for some good info. For raw formatting I use dos debug and type 'G=DC00:6'. This executes a formatter in the 1542's rom bios. grant@gouche.portal.com
