Unreliable is an understatement. That appears to be the problem. I just
attached a second RD53 to the RQDX3, and finally found the command to
initialize the disk. I was able to initialize the second one, but not the
one I've been trying to work with. Bleep. I won't say how much time I've
wasted on a "Good" hard drive.
Oh, well, now to figure out how to FTP the data I'm trying to get onto the
new HD (yes, I've installed TCP/IP on it).
Thanks for the help.
