C-Ltd problems
1 messages in this thread
Ok I gotta bone to pick. Guess what? Its C-Ltds bone. I ordered a C-Ltd Hard
Drive controler for the Amiga 500. The hard drive I ordered is a Seagate ST277N
65 meg SCSI. I ordered that drive because I like Seagate and it was a little
more in my price range.
I opened the packages when I got them. I already knew how to assemble a Hard
drive, but I read the manual anyway. The first problem was that the cable I got
was a 50 pin parallel TO serial, and I needed a 50 pin male to female serial
cable. I called C-Ltd and told them that I needed a 50 pin male TO female
serial cable. They sent me another cable free, but it was a parallel TO
parallel. I called them again, they sent another cable this time it was a
female TO female serial cable. I haven't them called yet. I am writting you
insted.
My second problem is that in the back of the Manual it says the Amiga 500 has
approx. 100 ma of power. The controler draws 250 ma, and that for the 500 you
have to have a power supply added at the factory (for an extra $50). My
Controler has no such power supply. I told the people when I ordered it that it
was for an Amiga 500. So now I guess I have to send the controler back to C-Ltd
to get this power supply added. Not only that but I have to pay $20. shipping
both ways for something they should have done to begin with.
All I can say now is that I am VERY displeased with C-Ltd.
