Definitely NOT!  It contains S/34 code that I consider to be the modern
equivalent of a computer virus :-).  I can understand you still having one of
those drives though, hard to do most 5360 conversions without one and the
darn things were so expensive on the /400 it's hard to justify getting rid of
them!

Regards!
