Hello:
I have a Western Digital 1:1 Interleave MFM hard/floppy controller with no
documentation. I need to put this into my machine which already has a SCSI
(Adaptec 1542 Hard/Floppy) controller. I would like to disable the floppy
controller on my WD card (I already know how to do this on the SCSI). Can
anybody help?
The controller is a WD 1006v-mm2, and it has two blocks of jumpers:
One close to the hard drive connectors marked 'W1' with 8 posts (or place
for 4 jumpers).
And one close to the backplane/floppy controller with 6 posts(place for 3
jumpers) marked w3, w4, w5.
Disabling the floppy drive controller would be the best, mut moving it to
a different address would also be OK as long as it didn't conflict.
Thanks in advance.
Mark.

I guess what you need is to set the W4 jumper: Jumper W4 pins: 1-2 off Primary floppy I/O addresses on Secondary floppy I/O addresses. Hope this help. Good luck, Darmawan dlg6627@uxa.cso.uiuc.edu
