Hello
Aaah just as I suspected. You have remnants of disk mirroring
left over when you installed on the external disk drive. I am
going to guess that the Mirroring database for the external 4 GB
drive 'knows' that it is the first disk controller (i.e. c0t0d0)
when in fact it is on the second controller (c1t0d0) and the internal
IDE drive is on the first controller.
There are two options here - both of which are not supported by
Foxboro / Invensys. If you want to go down that path then we
best take this discussion off the list.
I don't recall if you said why you are trying to do this ? The
51D family was supposed to use the internal drive. The marketing
thinking was that if you wanted features associated with external
SCSI drives then you would select the 51E family.
