Well,
	I bought SS/SL from LaCie directly after seeing a demo of it (them?)
at the local user group general meeting. They will sell the software seperate
from there hardware, and the manual (as well as several buttons in the
software) states that it can be installed on other manufactures hardware.

	They had no problem selling me SS/SL, I told them up front that I was
putting it on drive. 

By the way,
	My system is a 30M CDC drive with an Adaptec 4000A SCSI controller. I
told the people there that info as well. To use SS/SL on my disk, I first had
to have it formated. I used a PD formatter that came down the net sometime
ago.
