Question about SCSI jumpers and HDD capacity

[Oldsmobile_Mike]

Try using PFS or SFS instead of FFS for large hard disk support. Also all the obvious stuff - use the latest ROM's, latest version of the OS, etc., if you want to use large hard drives.

I you want to keep SCSI, I would suggest you to get this :

+1

Using HDtoolbox or something else?

But 2940uw doesn't detect hard disk in Ctrl+A menu.

Still don't understand what you mean by "Ctrl+A menu". What software?

+1 for SCSI2SD or one of the myriad CF solutions. If you're worried about backing up using WinUAE, just get a CF card reader for your PC.

Omg. Are you trying to prep the drive on a PC and then transfer it to an Amiga? Why are you making this so hard on yourself?
