Do tell more.  I've never heard of these Bad Things (tm).  I have
a Connor CP30254 just with a 8k filesystem and 3 Quantum SCSI
drives, one with 8k and the other two with 4k.  No problems.

If there IS something wrong that I have not noticed, I'd like to
know.  I plan on taking apart my system to re-configure and
upgrade this weekend which would be an ideal time to make such
changes...
