It's a long story so I won't get into it.... BUT my old Supra HD has
become a ROD (Read-Only-Device). I'm getting a new harddrive from Toad
Computers (Should be in the mail....) to replace it.
Waht I would like to do is connect the old HD to the new HD so I can
copy the 25+megs from the old HD to the new HD.
Q: Is it possible to connect two hard drives formatted by completely
different drivers when using one driver ??
[
i.e...... my old HD is formatted with Supra software & uses a
Supra driver. My new drive will use a different driver (???). Can I
connect the Supra drive to the Toad drive using the Toad HD driver
and still access the files on it ? I do have floppy copies of MOST of
the files (I ran out of floppies backing up my Minix partitions....
but got everything else)
]
The point is --> I don't really want to restore my files from floppy
when i have a HD that can be read from.....
{-email answers might be best.....-}
Thanx
