I have had very bad luck with the Miniscribe in the Supra 20. The first thing you need to do is call Supra and order a fan for your drive. Sometime in the last year Supra started using a fan in their 20meg. The fan moves alot of air. Sounds like a jet taking off. You can slow it down by putting a resistor in line with the fan. I have a 50 ohm in mine, but I'm using a Quantum 80 and it puts out alot less heat. You might try something around 10 ohms and 2 watts. Hope this helps. al palmer
