Hello All

Ok so i was having a little play around as I had a Msata drive Doing nothing so i bought a Msata to Ide adapter hooked it up installed 3.1.4 Everything seemed ok until I rebooted and it wouldn't boot to Workbench all I get it the boot screen, To test it I hooked it up to my pc and with Winuae it works perfectly, So what am I doing wrong or is it just not Fully compatible ?

Anyway, hope someone can help me

will include a picture of my Adapter

What size is your msata drive? What kickstart ROM do you have in the Amiga?

Hey Jope

I tried a 16gb and a 64gb and tried a different make of adapter from another Project

I have 3.1.4 ROMs

It all works on my main Sd card on my 1200.

In the early boot menu (hold down both mouse buttons on boot), what does Boot Options list show - provide a picture of it.

Sure here you go, Could this be Happening as I didn't select Direct SCSI transfer when I partitioned my drive?

I was interested in whether it was detected and what the priorities and bootable settings were. Your looks OK compared to my A1200 with IDE to CF adapter:

Hmmm weird, ok I'm gonna go back over it and see if I'm doing something wrong.

When you used the drive with WinUAE, did you have it connected to the emulated Amiga IDE port?

Sorry, not 100% sure so I have taken a screenshot from Winuae.

Please show how the volumes are formatted in HDToolbox. What max transfer values have you used?

Also, please check what scsi.device version you are using.

EDIT: You can run hddreport:

I use a mSATA drive with IDE adapter in my A4000 so they do work.
If you can, try booting from a floppy and see if you can access it.

I wrote about by board here:

Ok i must of been doing something wrong but I don't know what as I tried different things at the same time, this time I formatted and partitioned the drive from winuae enabled SCSI and when I put it in my 1200 it's working perfectly I used a different cable, so I tried it on a 16 GB 32gb 64gb and they all work and bother adapter boards, So I don't know why it's working now which at the same time is annoying, Very sorry for wasting everyone's time but thank you for trying to help me.
