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!
Hello Curtis. I've ordered an ide68k too with intention of connection a 2.5" HDD to my A500. I've just read on amibay that mkl has found someone who's having problems with real hard drives and he suspects a bug and hence he's holding off further shipments for time being - I suppose that must be you he's referring to? I hope he can fix it... I can attach a CF card if push comes to shove, but I really wanted a real HDD instead.
