Not wanting to hijack thread but have a question. I have an Acard U/W SCSI to SATA bridge I just bought for my 4000T/CS MKIII. What drive to use? looking at:

" https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIAAEE3ZZ6289 "

Any problem with this drive? Cache size & .............

PS: or how big can I really go?


That *should* work fine.  The cache size is largely irrelevant for our purposes.  The size, 120GB, is well within sanity range.  I have a 500GB and a 1TB running on the same Acard on non-Amiga systems.  You'll want to check out a few other threads about large hard drives (over 4GB) and the requisite filesystems and their needs.

7200.7?  That's a really, really old model, and a terrible price. But good luck with that! :lol:


Mike has a point.  If you really want something of that vintage, I'm certain I can scrounge up something in good condition and send it to you for shipping cost.  PM me if interested.
