Some of the drives have "died" on me, i.e. I get yellow lights when they are plugged into the arrays. Is it possible to do anything low-level to ressurect these drives? e.g. take them out of their caddies, connected them directly to a SCSI controller and low-level format them or something? Any suggestions appreciated. R. -- http://robinbowes.com If a man speaks in a forest, and his wife's not there, is he still wrong?
