Hello everyone,
I`m still having trouble with my 10GB Western Digital harddrive and I`ll
just say thankyou for all of your advice but unfortunatly I am still at
square one.
1...
Is it normal for an EYETECH 4-way buffered interface to have one of it`s
pins missing on one of the ports ( incidently the IDE male connecters are
called "port 1" and "port 0" on the IDE interface and are next to the small
IDE male port.)
2...
can someone confirm to me what UNIT, PORT, DEVICE are and what part they
play.
3...
Does it matter in what order you plug your IDE devices in on the IDE cable (
eg. there are to female connecters )
4...
Can anyone tell me where I can get "RDPrep"from ( I have scanned AFCDs 32-50
looked on Aminet and scanned the WWW but no luck )
5...
I have OS 3.0, WB 3.1 do you think this is why HDtools and HDinstools cannot
list my Western Digital HD.
6...
I also have another conner 2.5 700MB HD ( hold onto your seatbelts ) the
trouble is when I write, copy or sometimes view a file the screen will
hang, the drive light will stay on and the drive will make a noise as if is
trying to start spinning again , if I leave it for about 30 minutes it will
fix itself it is not a regular validating process, also when I use a disk
defragment programme it will get to a certain point on the disk and will
start the above proceedier again when I boot up it will do likewise when it
get`s to a certain point. Is there a way I can fix this.
Thank you all for your support.
