Erwin,

>> If you write on a disk formatted by an other system (controller) you
risk corrupting the drive. This is due to the sector translating trics
controllers use (or
something). <<

Is this true for non-removable drives? I ask because I've swapped drives
around when assembling new systems using existing drives.

If architects built buildings the way programmers built applications, the
first woodpecker to come along would cause the end of civilization.
