Well, I wouldn't say it's a lousy drive. I for one have had very little problems with this drive. And for the ones I have had, I have found solutions for... But then, I have never tried running the drive as a networked drive, so maybe that's it. I can't remember, but does the CM-206 come with network drivers? Did you try these drivers (assuming there are any)? I'm quite happy with this drive. I got it for a good price and it gives good performance, at least with my system and software.
