1. Can you tell us where you downloaded it from?
1a. Does it only work on WD drives?
2. Would it also get round whatever size limit Windows 7 has?

I tried it out. It won't accept a WDC drive on a generic USB

1a. Thanks - looks like it might even be only for _some_ WD drives.

problems with big drives fixed that way and I never really cared why.

From what I've personally looked at, it looks like it's all over the

Yes, with obvious scripted sessions. Not saying some of it isn't manual.

Maybe I'll update it


What would it take to do that?


For "later" to occur!

That's a running tally of Snit's non-sock posts and his flooding during the
last month. It'll update automatically and always show the last two months.
