Hard Drive help please
« on: March 03, 2006, 06:30:47 PM »
Ok, I've got an A4000 with a 4GB IDE hard drive and an IDE CD-ROM drive.  It's got 3.1 ROMs and AmigaOS 3.5.

My question is how difficult would it be to add/change to a 20GB IDE drive or do I even need it?

In the Amiga world is 4GB enough for a classic machine?  
Is 20GB overkill?
Should I upgrade to AmigaOS 3.9 first?
Should I keep the 4GB drive as a system drive and then add the 20GB as a secondary drive?
Do I need some hardware in order to do that?

Thanks for all your help/advice.
