I've tried to run DiskExpress II in automatic optimization mode on a volume where I run ParcPlace Smalltalk-80 V2.3. It *seems* to cause Smalltalk-80 to fail with "Smalltalk unexpectedly quit" followed by a system error. I say *seems* because immediately after I installed DEII, I began to get these errors. After three failures I manually optimized the affected volume and turned DEII off. No more problems and a noticeable performance improvement. I will continue to use DEII manually until I switch to V2.5. Then I'll try it again. Ken Warner
