Deborah,
This has been my expeirence as well. Jasmine can deliver nothing
but empty promises and bum drives. I have put my Jasmine to good
use, it's holding up one side of a busted chair. Jasmine refuses
to fix it, and they won't give me my money back. Their
explaination is that whenever they get the drive in for testing, it
works fine. When I have gotten it back, it refuses to work. I
have tried it an all 3 of my Macs, a Mac Plus, a brand new SE,
and an old 512K with a SCSI port. So much for Jasmine....
