Got the *weird noises* coming from my RAQ2 hdd.
As I have powerquest Drive copy (4.0) then I'm guessing
that I could follow this method to clone it....
1. get a spare drive
2. setup a spare PC with dual IDE support
3. set new drive to slave
4. Setup powerquest drive copy to run from floppy.
5. shutdown the RAQ2
6. pull the RAQ2 drive, install into the new pc as master.
7. boot from drive copy floppies
8. copy it without hiding any drives.
9. pull the new drive, unslave it, install in RAQ2
But wondered if there were a majic 'other option'
TIA
Paul
