Vesalia's Seagate HD?
« on: September 11, 2004, 03:31:31 PM »
Hoya!

OK, this sucks!

After FOUR (4) HDs I had to bring back to the shop, I asked the owner of the shop (who looked oddly at me when I mentionned AMIGA and told me that it would be wise to flash the Ammy's mobo in order to have her recognising those blinking Maxtor HDs) to refund my money. He will do so at the end of the month.

In the meantime, I will buy a new HD from the net, a 80 GB from Seagate. Vesalia seems OK and their prices seem pretty fair. What do you think.

Moreover a good friend of mine got many Ammies and WinUAE. Would the latter accept an actual HD and format it for Ammy? Do not worry, I have the actual 3.1 ROMS and 3.9... :-)

I have to use such a solution because, as you know, my 060 is dead and no 060 means no SCSI and, thus, no CD-rom... Which implies no bloody OS 3.9!  :pissed:

Hope you can help me!

Hoya!

Many thanks for your answers!

I think I will go for the Seagate then! ;-)

As for flashing the ROM... Well, (too?) MANY shop assistants think computer=peecee...

Amiga über Alles! ;-)
