Great! Yes, I think that because of the magnetic differences of HD disks, they are not very good for proper mastering (which is what KryoFlux does, very accurately) of DD data.

Have you tried a different drive? To best honest, the KF forum is a far better place for this, because the other guys know much more about this stuff than me...

Yeah, and we have been looking for a decent version of that one for years. ---------- Post added at 22:15 ---------- Previous post was at 22:13 ---------- Is this resolved? If not, it might be better asking on the KF forums...
