Hmmmm... well, as far as MacOS having problems with the drive, would I
possibly have problems elsewhere?  I've used this drive for a couple of
years (after getting it from dad... hehe), and it hasn't given me any
problems as far as I know... I tested it thoroughly with HDT Primer, and
it seemed okay... a couple bad blocks... but nothing big...
Well, maybe I should just resign to buying something else... 8-)
Oh, and btw, it mostly only has problems finding the kernel after a bad
boot... but sometimes other times...
