Hi - Could I tap the wisdom of the hardware netlanders. I have an AT equipped with a Data Technology Corp. hard disk controller & a Miniscribe 3425 (20 Mb) drive. I have aquired a used Miniscribe 3650 (40 Mb) drive. Since disk space is tight - you try living with 20M! - I want to attach the 40 M drive to the existing controller as drive D:. The problem is that I don't know what jumper settings to set or how to set the cables up. A real novice, huh. I assume everything is MFM. The controller has Data Technology Corp. and 'assy rev C' written on the PC board. Furthermore, an attached label has '5280 CAI/21180'. Does anyone know what the jumper settings mean? Currently, W2, W3 are open, W5 is set and W6 has 23 & 56 set. Also what jumper settings on the 3650 do I need to set to get to be drive D:? Could someone point in the right direction. Please e-mail me or post to the group if you can't reach me. If is interest, I'll post a summary. Thanks a million... -- | Bob Burrow | Dept. of Chemistry | | rburrow@alchemy.chem.utoronto.ca | University of Toronto | +----------------------------------------------------------------+
