- I just got the Dataflyer XDS IDE Case to mount a 3.5" IDE Drive
- Externally into the A1200 IDE 2.5" Connector and I'm having problems with it.
-
- I have a A1200 with a GVP A1230 TurboPlus Series II 030/50Mzh System and
- a GVP A1291 SCSI Controler Pluged into it. My system worked just FINE
- with a 2.5" Drive mounted Internally, but when I add the 3.5" drive the
- system Freezes. The 3.5" drive doesn't spin up like it's suppost to, and
- I can't access the SCSI Drives also because the computer is locked up.
- If I unplug the IDE Drive everything is fine. I've kfound out that if I
- unplug the SCSI drives then the 3.5" IDE drive spins up and the computer
- boots up.
-
- Now I plan to toss these 5.1/4 FULL Hight SCSI Drives which are around
- 140 and 150 Megs in size to use this new 1083 Meg IDE drive. Problem is
- I still need to access my SCSI Tape Drive to do a Restore, and to also
- Backup the New drive when it need it. Can anyone help?
