There is a sad fact that not all hard drives will work in an Amiga. Who knows what all the reasons are. I have four IBM 2.5" hard drives 4.3Gb up to 20Gb. Only the 20Gb will work in my A1200. This is true of SCSI hard drives too.

A1000 Microbotics Starboard II w/2Mb 1080, & external floppy (AIRdrive)

Hmm I have tried several brands of HDs (4GB to 40GB) and have got them all to work, from Toshiba, HItachi, IBM, Maxtor, Seagate.  If you have OS 3.9 you can pretty much get any HD to work.
