And I wasn't aware of the updated Adaptec extension. Good to have the latest info. Thanks, Dan. BTW, you may remember that in the past (OS 8.5/6) there was some conflict between Adaptec's extension and Apple's UDF extension. Re-ordering those two extensions so that Apple's preceded Adaptec's solved the conflict (and the 3rd-party Joliet Volume Access Extension also clashed with these extensions until it was placed ahead of them). I'm wondering if any re-ordering is necessary with the new Adaptec extensions? Have any knowledge on that?
