Win 98 SE and 40 GB USB drive : only 6 GB visible .. by
R.Wieser
Hello all,
I've recently put a 40 GB drive in an external enclosure with an USB
connection, but have problems with using the drive.

See my original post below.
The only problem (major problem) with the CD Rom drive is the initial
access when I first insert a data CD rom (or audio CD), even when laptop

finally have access (if I am lucky). Note: Each...

Starting Position of a Data CD Disk by
Brad
Hi,
I have been told that a data cd (also audio cd) is
first "read" from the middle track. Another person told me

it was first read from the outside (near the edge) track.
Can someone, who really knows, tell me where the
