Doncha just hate these postings?
I've been given the use of an old drive, of which
neither the owner nor I have any documents at all.
Could some kind soul mail or post the following? REAL SOON???
A Maxtor model XT 2190 2:
Unformatted Capacity:
# Cylinders:
# heads:
# sectors:
reduced Write Cylinder:
Write Pre-comp cylinder:
spin-up delay:
spin-up draw:
BTW. This beast seems to draw a LOT of power spinning up.
so much so that the other hard drive chokes on occasion.
I don't have much experience with little power supplies (200w),
But this just don't seem right. Is it?
