Hi

I lately discovered scsiinfo from this list, which I ran on
my IBM DCAS 34330  (4.33GB) drive.

scsiinfo claims 647 defects in the manufacturers list, then throws out a
list,
finally reporting '0 entries in grown table'

Is 647 a reasonable defect count? I have no feel for what to expect here.
This disk has been giving occasional problems, causing scsi timeouts and
preventing some users from saving large files. Is this related?

Thanks for any info

TimR
