I can't
get my rqdx3 to format any of the st-225's I have. I'm
hoping this will solve my problem.
I've had the same issue, my experience has been that unless the drive
is already formatted for a DEC, the RQDX3 won't be able to reformat
it successfully (even for drives with the exact same geometry as a
DEC standard drive). At least I never had any luck doing so, but
maybe newer ROMs will solve the problem.
