I have an IBM XT clone with an Adaptec RLL controller and Seagate ST238R drive currently installed. I recently bought a used 20 meg drive with a 1984 circa Western Digital controller. When I just use the WD by itself (no RLL controller) it works fine. But, when I try and use both controllers simultaniously my system hangs inevitably during boot-time... even with a floppy disk installed. I have no DOCs for either drive (one came with the system, the other one i bought at a garage sale!) I just know that the Western Digital controller is NOT RLL (1984 vintage) and the 20meg that came with it (cheap brand) is not RLL either.... Please help me!
