GVP A500 HD+ Controller Questions
« on: July 06, 2007, 06:27:58 PM »
What is the largest hard drive I can put into a GVP A500 HD+ Controller? Is it SCSI-II or IDE? What is the max size of partition supported in Workbench 1.3 with Kikstart 1.3? Thanks in Advance.

OK, so then the drive is just a standard 50-pin SCSI... Ok, so it sounds like a 2GB drive is the best that I can use. Hopefully this will arrive soo so that I can start playing with it... It has a 220mb hard drive installed currently. Are these units hard to modify at all?

By modify, I specifically mean... Is it hard to install a larger hard drive into these units?

Cool, sounds easy... I just picked up a brand new 2gb IBM 50-pin SCSI 2 drive. I can't wait for the controller to get here... Woohoo...
