Tom,
I dunno how hard they are to find, but the post-2.0.x versions of FWB
Hard Disk Toolkit support IDE. I have a Power Computing install CD
around here that has a bundled version 2.5, but it boots MacOS v8. Will
the PB 150 boot that?

at the time as it used an IDE drive to help reduce the cost. I have
been using this machine to run MIDI recording software until recently
when the hard drive has had some sort of failure, either software or
hardware, I'm not sure which yet. The result is that when the machine
attempts to boot, it does not recognize the formatting on the disk. I
would like to try to recover the data (if possible) before re-formatting
the drive, and I've heard that a program call disk warrior might be
the solution. Does anyone have any comments or suggestions on this?
