I submitted the below quest for help earlier but it may seem too complicated to answer. so if you could help me with one or two questions. If you are running Mac OS 8.6 or later and have external drives, under APPLE SYSTEM PROFILES does it list your external drives under this INTERNAL RAM? as well as individually on it appointed SCSI bus? I started having problems with on of my external hard drives. It seem that one is locking up, Read and write light on at the same time. I did the usual Norten clean up and check out and it says everything is fine. when I optimized the drive it locked up. Here is a little background. Im running OS 8.6 with a Targa 1000 card. Adaptec 2940 with two external 9 gig formated with Remus lite 1.4 striped. The system has been running great for over a year. 8.6 was just loaded but this problem existed with 8.1 as well. running through a bunch of things i noted that in APPLE SYSTEM PROFILE under DEVICES AND VOLUMES it lists all the hardware on the SCSI buses including the two external hard drives individually, even though the desktop see them as one because they are stripped. But, this is what is strange at the very bottom of the list it says INTERNAL RAM and lists my external drives listed as one drive 18 gig like it should be. I clicked on the arrow and it has all of the info of the drives as one. So I am asking what the "you know what" is INTERNAL RAM, what does it have to do with my externals? Is this related to my other problem? Sorry for the long cry for help but HELP!!
