Can anyone tell me how (if at all) one can use a 3.5 high density internal disk drive, in a SE that has a double density drive at the current time. Can you just swap a drive (like a CX drive) in and go about my work? Thanks, Christopher J. Graham E-MAIL : cjg@sps.com or rcs47793@zach.fit.edu

I believe Rapport, e.g., has software to work that around. Lauri Valsta valsta@cc.helsinki.fi

I believe Rapport, e.g., has software to work that around. This is true for the older SE's. However, all the newer SE's have the proper ROMS to use the FDHD. Of course, for the original question, you can't just swap the older drive with the newer one without getting the Apple upgrade. -Bri -- Brian Kenney kenney@hsi.com 3M Health Information Systems Wallingford, CT ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ "It's not innovation... but it's close."
