I don't know. I haven't been able to get it to access the catalog on
the drive though formatting under ProDOS now always claims to
work where it would fail before. The clicking sound it makes is
pretty loud and annoying and I'm sure a LLF won't help that. Does
anyone know if you used the same Apple II interface card for the 5
meg and 10 meg ProFILEs?
Sounds like its dying. Might be time for a little home clean room to
repair it. Go back and find the dicussion from several months back that
talked about building a clean box.
