ok. this is getting old… I've just installed a new quantum 170 mg HD in my amiga 2500. I already have a quantun 40 meg. so I am addind the 170 mg internal w/scsi to the system…ok. wont low level format w/ HD toolbox. will format w/ workbench format disk routine. so I can get it to configure..but I cant transfer data from one HD to the other w/out it locking up. i cold boot and there are checksum errors at block where head was when machine was turnrd off. ( iguess) this is the second drive that this has happend with. I have all the correct connections..I assume it must be something in my startup or the a2091 control card ..however…I have gone through all procedures included in all manuals that I have.. still nada! if any one has sugest please leave a messege here or at openegg@usa.net thanks atomic elroy exit
