Hi,
 Sometime ago (I think in january), there was a post in this list 
about installing a hard drive up side down. There was a reply 
(from Mark Barron, I guess) which said that it is ok as long as all 
levels of formatting are done in the same orientation.
 I could not understand why this should matter. I thought 
it was more of a problem with bearings and stuff. How does the 
orientation of the disk affect the formatting? Also, what does 
he mean by "all levels of formatting"?

 TIA.
