I am upgrading an 86meg drive to a 380meg drive and I'm having some troubles with the controller. The manuals that I have are for the older style controllers that came with the original DN3000. I have one of the newer style controllers and I can't get the jumpers set correctly. Here's the board description, can someone tell me the correct configuration for a 380 meg MAXTOR drive? Part No. 011914-001 Rev. D Date 6/8/88 It has jumpers labeled W4 through W11 on top, (horizontally) and then jumpers w14 through w23 toward the right side of the board positioned vertically. For the 86 meg drive W10, W11, W16, W17, W20, and W23 are jumped. I've been trying to reach our rep. but he's on vacation. Thanks for you time, Ric houghton@cs.indiana.edu

The 'jumper' program shows the following configuration for the Ompti 8610 disk controller board: For the 86 MB drive (72 MB formatted): W1, W4, W7, W8, W9 should be in. All other jumpers should be out. For the 380 MB Maxtor drive (350 MB formatted): W1, W2, W4, W7, W8, W9, W11 should be in. All other jumpers should be out. Note that the difference is adding jumpers to W2 and W11. All others remain the same. -- David Krowitz krowitz@richter.mit.edu (18.83.0.109) krowitz%richter.mit.edu@eddie.mit.edu krowitz%richter.mit.edu@mitvma.bitnet (in order of decreasing preference)
