- I am trying to install some Maxtor XT-8760S disks
- on an IPX running 4.1.2. I am unable to get them to
- format successfully - I suspect that its to do with
- some of the jumper settings (I've read that these disks
- should be hard configured for 52 sectors/track and driven
- in hard sector mode).
-
- Can someone throw any light on this problem. Any help would
- be much appreciated.
