3. I loaded my "A4000" AmigaOS3.9 configuration and then clicked "Add harddrive..." on the "Hard Drives" tab.
4. After a couple of warnings, I was able to choose from two harddrives... either "ToshibaMK1403MAV" or "Maxtor6Y120M0".
5. I chose the Toshiba drive, since the Maxtor drive is my Serial ATA PC hard disk!
6. I booted the AmigaOS3.9 config and loaded HDToolbox. (NB. For some unknown reason, the version of HDToolbox that came with Workbench 3.1 wouldn't recognise the Toshiba drive, otherwise I would just have booted from the "Install" disk of Workbench 3.1)


Surely the hard drive has to visible to windows to mount it as an amiga drive? am i understanding it? (probably not :-))
