- I have a question about PS/2 ESDI Drives.
-
- I have a PS/2 mod 80 with two hard drives. One of them is a 315 MB ESDI drive.
- I recently purchased a PS/ValuePoint 433 (486-33 Mz) with a 120 MB hard drive.
- The PS/ValuePoint drive controller is built into the motherboard, and it is IDE.
- I need to use the 315 MB ESDI Drive in the ValuePoint. How do I do this ?
-
- Can I buy a ESDI controller for the ISA bus and use the hard drive with the
- controller. OR will the IBM ESDI Drives only work with IBM ESDI controllers.
-
- Thanks.
