I used to get a lot of blockid errors with SFS. One day I realised it was when I was using an IDE-USB adapter, binned it and started using IDE-Sata adapters and never had that problem since.

Well I get the error "Cannot read device size" when I click on "Read configuration".
Strange is that the Memorycard (a SDCard with 32GB) I got it working some time ago. I'm using WB 3.2 Can someone help me here? Tried ther "UAEHF.device" and the "SCSI.device". By the scsi device it recognizes half. It shws me that SDCard is 8TB big. Now I get "Cannot read from drive definitions" error. With "uaehf.device". "SCSI.Device recoognizes nothing now. Now I get two devices in the HDToolbox. The first one gets me the "Cannot read device size". The secoond one recognizes the SDCard when I click on "Read Configurastion". When I try to save I get "Cannot read from drive definitions" error. This is wiith "uaehf.device" Have solved the problem. Now it works. Only problem now is that the 3.2.1 Update adfs are not shown in WinUAE Last edited by Drake008@; 07 June 2022 at 13:35. |

On HDToolBox, on the screen where you "Read Configuration", in the text box "Filename:", change the text in there to something else, e.g: AmigaOS. It probably has the text "drive definition", change it and your issue will be fixed.
Hope that helps. Last edited by Beloud; 30 October 2022 at 21:33. Reason: Typo |
