Thanks Peter, that is just what I wanted to know! When I bought a 30 gig Maxtor two years ago there was no way to connect the stock 6 gig Quantum as a slave to this Maxtor (it just wouldn't show up in any way) so at that time I made the Quantum the master and Maxtor the slave. Since the 30 gig Maxtor was faulty they send me that 40 gig D740X-6L as a replacement whch is actually a Quantum and now I can use this drive as the master and that stock 6 gig as a slave. w00t! This weekend I've installed those two drives in that way and temporarily installed the 30 gig Maxtor above the CDRW and used the CDRW's IDE cable to connect it so that I could copy all data from this drive to the new one which BTW I partitioned into four partitions with DS from 9.2.2 (IIRC v2.0.7) and copied the sysfolder with 9.2.2 from the Quantum to the first partition. I had pressed the CUDA, but when I booted only a grey screen. Ohoh. After zapping the PRAM it booted right away and a bit faster!! I'm now luckily running 46 gig in my B&W Rev1 400. Sorry for this long post, perhaps OT, just wanted to let ya'll know that that drive performs perfectly in a Rev1 B&W together with the slaved stock 6 gigger.
