As long as you don't set VERIFY=ON there's no problem or just don't use scandisk at all.One of the changes between MS-DOS 6.20 and 6.21 was a workaround for a hardware bug in certain Cirrus Logic chips used in some harddrives. Running a surface scan in Scandisk with DOS set to have VERIFY=ON would erase all data on the drive... Oh, the irony :D
The only mention of this that I can find is this. (I have a bunch of Conner CFS210A drives so I should probably keep using DOS 6.22)
