I actually purchased one from him. It works fine, except it 1) doesn't work with A/UX (A/UX does not recognize TimesTwo disks). 2) doesn't work with A/UX's mac partition. 3) not stable, sometimes you have to reboot the system from non-timestwo disk, after it recognizes the timestwo disk, you can reboot from timestwo disk. (So, you have to pray that it will not be dead forever, :-)) 4) I don't think it's 100% transparent. (Play with your imaging software) 5) I guess TimesTwo is not supported any more ???
