- I and some of my friends have had quite a few problems with Connor SCSI
- harddrives. When we used a 1 Gig to read off 4000 frames it made
- read errors in the files, and it was incredibly slow when we copied
- files to and from it. And a friend of mine had a Conner that crashed
- big time. It simply burned down!! So, if possible, don't use Conner
- SCSI harddrives. All other brands that I know of don't have these
- problems. I myself have an A3000, but I have not tried using a Conner
- harddisk on it.
-
- Controllers Conner didn't work on:
-
- GVP HC8 (?) Controller in A4000/040
- Fastlane in a A4000/030
-
- No probs with AT though...
-
- Hope this helped you.
