IIgs using hard disk 20 - test-drb@ccmp.vtda.org

15 Oct 2001

...
   was designed
to work with older non scsi macs (128k 512k), and could be
 daisy chained thru the disk drive ports 
Are you SURE? I have an HD20 which works just fine on a Plus, but which I
have NEVER been able to make work on a 128k. My 512k has video problems
and I haven't had a chance to sort those out so I can test the HD20 on it. 
I was almost 100% positive that I once had it working on a 128k, but a 
search of apple's TIL shows that the HD20 works with the 512ke, Plus, SE, 
Classic, IIci, and Portable... so I guess I never took it lower than my 
Plus (I never owned either of the 512's). This is going to be a head 
scratcher for me for some time... I distinctly remember hooking it up to 
my 128. (I can picture sitting in front of the table working on it... I 
guess I must have failed in my attempts, but I could have sworn I was 
successful)
