3.5 inch harddrive in A600
« on: May 18, 2007, 06:47:36 AM »
Hi All

I really need help or a guide for installing a 3.5 inch HD to the A600. I already have the adapter for 2.5 to 3.5, Im not sure how to hook the power up needed for a 3.5 inch drive. The drive itself is quite small in size and fits fine in the machine. Any help appreciated

Ok, so i think i've wired up the molex incorrectly. The a600 floopy power has a red, 2 blacks and a brown wire, the had molex is ur standard red black black yellow. The drive isnt detected at all, the mobo is the version 3.375 or something close. hmmmmmmm so if i use hdtools through winuae, maybe a can get this too life. Ive mad an external bracket for the drive and it looks pretty good.
