SATA HD on Amiga 1200 IDE

@UAE · 14 March 2010, 21:15

Hi All
i used sata to IDe adapters, all partations done with sfs, and with 1 GB system partation , but the system cannot boot from HD, even if i start with WB3.1 floppy i have to run HDtools for the partation to appear on WB . but still cannot boot with HD

.

HD is 80gb . i made 3 partations 1,4,65GB

Why would you want to run a SATA HD over an IDE port anyway?

@UAE · 15 March 2010, 07:53

I want to change the OLD hard disk , always error , nowadays difficult to find New Ide HD , This is brand new SATA 80Gb. I may try PFS partition , where can download ?

You have to buy. Not download. It is not free.

Go for SFS instead it's free and supported

Don't go for SATA, use solid state instead.....this isn't 1993 you know

These look nice

alexh · 16 March 2010, 22:16
