Title: 9.1GB SCSI drive on HD8+
Post by: clemenza on April 11, 2008, 09:24:58 AM

Hi to all! I have a little question: if I partition and format a 9.1GB SCSI drive using my A2000's Blizzard 2060 then the drive will work without any other actions and/or modifications on my A500's HD8+; The HD8+ has the 4.15 ROM and the A500 has the 3.1 ROM (and OS)

Of course, 4GB is THE limit! :-D

 I'm afraid it will not work, as the GVP HD8+ have a special, non-standard boot block.

 It is better to grab the original installation disk and install from it.
