Do you remember which model 9133 it was? What did you have to do to
format the new drive? I have to admit that even though I've had a few
64000s, I've never used one and I'm not familar with it's OS.

that used a ST-225. I know at least one model of the
9133 uses the ST-225
but don't remember which one it was without looking at my notes however I
THINK it was a 15Mb model.
That's interesting. The 9113H uses an ST225 I think (it's certainly a
normal ST506 interaced hard disk). If there's a way to replace the drive
in that with any old ST225 ripped from a PC or something then I'll be
rather happy. I'd also be interested if anyone has worked out what the
Ident Sea settings correspond to.
