Title: Does anyone know if these Quantum Drives are compatible with an EIII? Post by: Shogun on November 11, 2010, 01:49:12 PM Hi,
In my quest to fix the EIII internal drive, I have located the following disks but unsure if compatible? Can anyone confirm? Quantum ProDrive ELS 170meg SC Quantum Fireball TM1280S What ID should the internal hard disk be? Thanks. Title: Re: Does anyone know if these Quantum Drives are compatible with an EIII? Post by: lubb on November 11, 2010, 02:47:33 PM I have tried Quantum ProDrive LPS with my EIII, it worked.
I guess Quantum ProDrive ELS 170meg SC should work as well, but the best way is to try it. Quantum Fireball TM1280S was mounted by the factory to the Emulator 4 series. Since its capacity exceeds 1 GB, I do not think it is suitable for an EIII, for EIII takes time to format large drives, so 1 GB is a practical upper limit (3 hours plus with the mandatory disk verify). Proven Drives for an EIII: Seagate ST51080N 1GB Maxtor MXT 540S 540MB Quantum XP31040W 1GB I would suggest SCSI ID#1 for the internal HD (must be set via internal jumpers), SCSI ID#6 for the EIII itself (set via software). But you can use any ID# for the internal HD, providing it is not conflicting with any other SCSI device in the SCSI chain (including EIII itself). |
