PERQ T2

Hi Tony, Thanks for the reply. The drive is a Micropolis 1303, and I think it has failed. The drive does spin down after a minute or so. I noticed the PERQ manuals do state that the hard disk must be able to perform a "locate disk heads" operation, even for a floppy boot - which I assume means find track 0. Hence I'm unable to boot from floppy. I will check the signal levels just to be sure. Wondering where to go from here. I'm guessing I could buy a replacement 1303 drive - but they are not cheap (hence my other posting) just to try and see. Ian. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Fussy? Opinionated? Impossible to please? Perfect.
