I recently received an RD-54 disk for my Microvax from Digital. I noticed
that it was a Maxtor Xt-2190 disk. Hoping to save time and money, I bought
two disks directly from a Maxtor supplier. When I try to format either
one, using the customer format program, I get errors at 11 minutes
into the format. Is there a different program that DEC uses?
