hymm, this is interesting to me. the disk in question is an oooold ide disk.
it is quantum 540 mb disk. i suspect it is the oldest drive, including the
cdrom.
in addition, if i were not seeing hdc already, i would not be as mystified.
on the other hand, given that hdc is there, i would have expected hdd to be
as well. am i missing something here???
