My system gives some very strange results.
STAT dos1_ (153GB) is: 238221176/321669424 and returns 238221152/321669424
dos2_ (8GB) should be: 321744/16787488 and returns 238221168/321669424
It seems that dos2_ is reporting back the capacity of dos1_. I'm running 
the latest QPCII
on XP Pro. Dos1_ is a SATA drive and dos2_ an old ATA.
