- I have a 4000HD drive that won't format/read HD disk, but DD disk are OK.
- I have checked the sensor for the HD hole and it works fine. How does
- amigados know if it is a HD or DD disk. Does it just send a format/read
- command to the drive and the drive takes care of the rest of the operation?
- I don't want to replace the drive just to find out it is the motherboard or
- bad software.
