I have a SEGATE ST251 with a noname controller in a noname AT compatible.
PROBLEM:
     When I format the drive (with or without the DISK MANAGER SOFTWARE)
it works fine until I power down.  Upon power up, the disk is not recognized
and the partition table is usually empty. (Various things have happened, but
this is the most common error I have encountered...)

ANY suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks.
