The Register: Ideas for explaining an Amiga mystery wanted
A strange case the "The Register" has reported under the title link: an Amiga 4000 only then were transfered files from an external SCSI harddrive if the clock program was running - with a certain window size and placed on the top right-hand side of the Workbench.
The editor, Richard Speed, himself has given a possible explanation: "I suspect the issue was a weird DMA conflict between the DMA-based SCSI controller and the rest of the system with the clock application rendering adjusting the timings just enough for it to work." But he has enrouraged the readers to give similar theories in the comment section.
