Good info. Thanks.
I eventually found an affordable drive (2000 years later) for under $100 and solved my case.

Thanks for confirming that. I'd always assumed it, but never yet tried it. I've been keeping a list of cross-compatible families here: https://www.data-medics.com/forum/cross ... html#p6487

I'll add that pairing to the list.
