CFIDE68K with real IDE HD
« on: June 27, 2013, 10:34:30 PM »
Has anyone successfully used the CFIDE68K with a real IDE hard drive?

I've tried several models on rev 5 and 6a boards and nothing seems to work.  Used KS 1.3, 2.05 and 3.1 all to no avail.

Contacted mkl on amibay and he doesn't understand why it would not work either!

I've tried just about everything from a 52Mb on up to a 2G.

Several brands, Seagate, Toshiba, WD, etc.

I'm using a bigfoot power supply for the A500 and for the drive also so power shouldn't be an issue.

It's interesting that others can get this to work but I'm having absolutely no luck!

Now I'm beginning to wonder what I'm doing wrong!

Yeah, that would probably be me.

Sorry to disrupt everybody's orders.

CF cards work perfectly, but seems sometimes the real IDE drives don't.

Not sure why it would be that way, but there it is.

Noticed on amibay mkl has found the problem and provided the code to fix the problem.  Now just need to get my units over to him.
