WTB: 40MB or less 2.5" Hard Disk and WB2.# Disks (including Install)

[skurk]

Throw in a couple of Kickstart 3.1's and a cheap, modern big sized 2.5" IDE drive.  I have a 40GB hdd in my A600/kick 3.1 without any issues.

Definitely worth it, as opposed to messing around with old, small, noisy and short-lifed hdd's.

I have 3.1 in my other A600, yes it's good but even with an extra 1Mb of fast it is a tad choppy. I just thought that WB2.# of some sort would be alot smoother. Plus this one doesn't have extra RAM.

I think you're confusing Kickstart 3.1 with Workbench 3.1.

Did you need any patches for that (e.g. patched scsi.device or something)?

No, it was "plug and play".  I don't use the entire disk (yet), and all my partitions are <4GB each.

If the partition is smaller than 4GB (which naturally is the case on a 2.1 GB disk), it should work... Was the size correctly shown by HDToolBox?

Not in HDToolBox, but HDInst got it right.
