[comp.sys.mac.hardware] Info on MiniScribe hd requested

paulm@nikhefk.UUCP (Paul Molenaar) (11/27/89)

I recently bought (at a relatively mild price) a MiniScribe harddisk, type
M3180S. Sold as a 110Mb disk, physically a 160Mb disk{. They just left out
the 50Mb in testing.

Anyway, I got the harddisk up and running, but I suspect some jumper-settings are incorrect. At first the harddisks failed completely, but removing one jumper
got him formatted with SilverLining. I suspect, however, that I need to make some
more adjustments, since behaviour is somewhat unpredictable.

Did anyone here ever make a MiniScribe suitable for use on a Mac? Any
considerations to take into account? Does anyone have a specslist
of the critical jumpers? Much appreciated!
