Fixing bad SyQuest 88mb carts with a SCSI verify?
In a previous Mail-Call video I had a SyQuest drive that wouldn't read any of the 88mb carts I had. Always a green flashing LED. I tested all of these carst in another drive (of unknown condition) and it also flashed the green LED and didn't read any of them. It seems I figured out a way to "revive" these disks and they are ALL working now!
