Hi, I have a PM7300/200 with 256 MB of RAM and running OS 9.1. I have in the PCI slots an ATI Rage 128 from my B&W, a firewire card, and a USB card. I'm currently using an IBM 18GB hard drive that has been formatted using FWBs HDT and it uses FWBs drivers. Now the hard drive is 80-pin and I have it connected using an 80pin to 50/68 pin adapter. On the SCSI chain I have the stock 2GB drive (which is dead) as the last drive and it only acts as a terminator; mind you if I disconnect the 2GB drive and replace it with the 18GB drive, the computer won't start up for some reason. The 18GB drive is next and then the CD-ROM. I've been trying to use iMovie2 but every time I try to download a movie from the Digi-Cam I can only get a few seconds then I get the error message that my disk is too slow. The specs on the IBM site says that this particular drive runs at 7200rpms. Any idea why I keep getting the error message? Thanks in advance. Would my Adaptec SCSI 2906 card in my B&W be of any help here? Just wondering.
