You may have been wrong about that detail, but I was wrong on two other things.
My system folder is 31M; that doesn't leave alot of room on a 40M HD for my other apps. I know I could slim it down by throwing out numerous Preferences and a few CPs and Extentions that I don't use any more, but I don't think it'll get that much smaller to make it worth the time. The other more important thing is that the noise is coming from the SE/30; I found that out after I tried opening an old disk utility (couldn't remember what it did, and thought I may get lucky) and it locked up the computer. (probably required 24 bit addressing), so I shut the compter off and the noise went away. The external drive was still on. So I used Mt Everything to spin down the internal drive, and that wasn't the problem either. I'm guessing the power supply and/or analog board is making the noise, or perhaps the fan. Is this whine a sign of bad things to come in your experience? Or do all compacts make this noise? I can't recall if either of my SE's whined like this or not, and they're not handy for me check. At any rate, I appreciate the advice thus far, and I now have another usefull utility. Thanks, J White Buy American S.O.S. Save Our Steel -- Compact Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/>.
