melott,

Is your drive a true Amiga 2000 HD drive or one made for the Amiga 3000 or 4000?  If it is what Workbench are you using?  I have discovered that some Amiga 2000 HD drives work with Amiga OS 2.04, but not with Amiga OS 3.1 or above.  I just sold a true Amiga 2000 HD disk drive on eBay for $95.00 plus S/H charges.  The buyer is very happy with it and gave me a positive feedback.  That drive only worked with Amiga OS 2.04.  It did not work with Amiga OS 3.1.  I could email you a DMS copy of the best Amiga disk alignment program available, but I think it only works on the standard Amiga disk drives.  My advice: STAY AWAY FROM HD DISK DRIVES FOR THE AMIGA!!!!  The Amiga standard is still 880K.  So, start stocking up on DS/DD disks like I do.  The following Teac disk drives will work with the Amiga computer: Teac FD-235HF 3240-U5, Teac FD-235HF 3217-U, and Teac FD-235HF 3201-U.  I hope this helps you out.     :-)
My favorite TV shows:  Star Trek Voyager, Forever Knight, Stargate SG1, Married with Children, As Time Goes By, Mr. Bean, Smallville, The Six Million Dollar Man, and Xena
