I had a power glitch the other day while formatting a SCSI hard disk. Since 
then, none of the formatters I have will touch it. They say that the drive is 
not ready,  even though they have managed to find out that it is a Conner 
200MB hard disk.

Can I do anything with the disk? Or is it destined for the junk bin :-(
