Hi,
I recently bought a IBM 4.5gb 50pin SCSI HDD model "DCHS",
which is now fitted internally in a 7600. It spins up OK.
The only way I could get it to appear on the desktop is to run
an Avid utility called "AVIDdrive". This means it appears as an
Avid media drive.
If I run "Disc first aid" it says the disc seems OK.
When I try to run "Drive set up" it can see the drive on the SCSI
chain, but won't initialise it because "Cannot modify a disk in an
unsupported drive".
I tried to install MAC OS 9 on the drive, and I get told it won't do it
because the disc drivers are wrong.
Can anyone tell me can this drive be changed to become a normal
Mac drive? All ideas welcome.
Many thanks,
Davy
