Are you putting an IDE drive in a Vintage Mac that is built for SCSI? An
interesting experiment, that's for sure! I was just trying to figure out
the size of the hard disk of a Dell PC I found on the street tonight, but
I had no plans of using it in one of my Vintage Macs.
The FAQ only mentions SCSI hard disks, so I'm afraid this will never work.
>Hello. I have a pair of PC IDE drives (a Quantum and
>a JST) I would like to format but Drive Setup (1.7.3)
>does not see them. Can I Resedit Drive Setup so that

>and it can't see the Quantum and it only sees the JST
>as a generic drive. FWB tries to format the JST but it

>to then stop. Anyone have any ideas on this? Thanks.
