Quantum HD problem Message #196703
From: Kevin Shafer Amiga User Forum · Using 2.0 – 3.0 May 12, 1995 7:53 AM
Try using something other than HDToolbox to set up your drive, like, GVPs FaaastPrep, for example. I've heard that HDToolbox is not to accurate. Sounds like HDToolbox cannot handle large drives, for some reason.

Ouch. Sounds like you may have a rev. 3 (or maybe even earlier?) Seems like the previous owner thought that if he put in the 1 Meg Agnus chip, he would automatically have 1MB chip ram…that's what I thought at once 8) But anyway, all my docs say that if…
