Hi Amiganians,
Connected the seagate directly to the 2,5 connector op de FastATA 1200 MK-II, nothing else, but the hd was not recognized in the bios (early startup amiga menu). I then checked if it was properly connected (the FastATA 1200 MK-II that is, it is connected OK).
Silly question time have you tried running hdtoolbox yet and partitioning the drive as drives only show up in the early startup menu on the Amiga after they have been partitioned and a bootable partition has been created as it bootable device not actual hard drives that are displayed :-)
