- Hi Dave,

-
- It must be a SCSI-board, because that disk is an SCSI-disk, and a good
- reliable one too btw. - one of the really good Quantums. Anyway,
- HDtoolbox that comes with the OS will handle it just nicely, but you
- have to tell HDtoolbox the name of the SCSI-device, you can do this
- either from TOOLTYPES in the icon or simply start it from a commandline
- and type:
-
-
- HDTOOLBOX icddisk.device
-
- That's all there is to it, icddisk.device will handle the drive, and
- HDtoolbox will ask it politely to do what is needed, assuming of course
- that you give HDtoolbox some sensible instructions to translate via its
- user-interface, but it is real easy to use.
