- Since I'm constantly out of disk space, I thought I'd try and hook up
- this IBM drive I've got. The disk identifies itself as "7910A12" on
- an inquire but I'm unable to format it on the NeXT (tried Workspace
- and formatter).
- The drive will format on my Mac with Silverlining, but still isn't
- very happy - it refuses to boot.
- Anyway, I've seen posts in the past on how to change parameters on the
- 1 gig IBM drives, and I suppose that this one has a similar weirdness.
- Anyone know what I need to change or how to get documentation on it?
-
- Thanks!
