Would like advice on purchasing large HD for T1200...

[Fester]

Hi there,

I'm looking for a large capacity hard drive for a towerized Amiga 1200.

I was thinking of purchasing a 250 or 300 GB ATA and want to know if any old ultra ATA would do.

I intend to install OS 3.5 and I have a Fast ATA 1200SX card and Mediator installed.

I assume my hard drive choice should work, but since I've never done this, I thought I'd ask for your comments first...What should I avoid? What difficulties might I encounter?

Thanks for the information Thomas.

This is definately not my bowl of soup. I'll try purchasing the HD from an Amiga store like Amigakit. The points you made will help me discuss the possibilities with the dealer.

Thanks!
