Hey all! I have an old SCSI hard drive that I want to use on my Mac Plus. It's a 9GB external drive that was once hooked to an old NT box that I no longer have.
I can hook it to my Powerbook 1400 and see it, but I can't do anything with it. The drive does show up on the SCSI bus, but I'm thinking that because it's an NTFS formatted drive, I need to reformat it. However, I can't do so with Apple's HD SC Setup utility, or Drive Setup. Does anyone have a good recommendation for a drive tool that will let me: A) See the drive, B) Format it to HFS, and C) Drop System 6.0.8 onto it so I can boot my Mac Plus? I am aware about System 6 not liking partitions above 2GB, and I do intend to partition the drive so that there's one partition for System 6, and the rest can be split for storage between Sys6 and Sys7. My Powerbook 1400 runs either Mac OS 7.6.1 or Mac OS 8.6, so tools that work in either OS are perfect.
