The following question arose as I was trying to install a second hard drive (20mb) in my XT. There is a row of eight (8) pairs of pins on the board. When I had one 20mb disk drive there were two jumped pairs, #3 and #4 (counting from 1, not counting from 0). When I added a scond 20mb drive, the system sees the additional drive (D:) and that it has 21 million bytes available, but when I write to it, I get lots and lots of unlinked clusters. (i.e. mucho bad data!!) The drive is a Seagate 238 (which I know is an RLL but I am using as] an MFM drive which means that I only get 20meg instead of 30 meg); the controller card is a Western Digital WD 1002S-WX2.
