Re: RamFAST SCSI and largest HD/partition

[Jay <Someone@somewhere.com>]

Andy and George,

Thanks for the help.  I'm going to try out some 540MB drives.
I tried a 1.08 Gig IBM drive which must have been SCSI-2 only.

I couldn't get the Apple High Speed SCSI card to recognize anything
above 40MB (and I've tried 40MB, 80MB, 100MB, 120MB, 200MB, 240MB).
I used the Apple High Speed SCSI Utilities (prodos 8) and every time
it couldn't find a drive.

Pull out the HS-SCSI and put in the RamFast, and all of them are
recognized.

Is there a newer version of the HS-SCSI Utilities?!?!

Cheers!

--> Jay
