15 or 20 gig in A4000 both "Seek failure"

[A1200Power]

Hi Guys,

I'am out of ideas at the moment how to get both my drives to work in the A4000.

My basic Western Digital WDC850 drive works fine in the machine also with os3.9. But soon i ran out of space so got a 15G seagate and a 20G Western Digital.

I already use the idefix prog because it is used to acces the cd-rom. Connecting the drives ain't no problem eigther. The sh*t comes when i try to format the drives, they have been partitioned wel and the toolbox reports the drives correctly by size.

Also tried the SFS (smart file system) but that does not work because i get some kind of checksum error that the drive is not taking the fullformat and quickformat for granted.

Maybe you got some ideas??

Much appreciated Henk. :roll:
