AI InnerDrive help needed
I just picked up a couple of AI InnerDrive 40 internal hard drives
recently. One of them had a few errors or it that were fixable and it is
now running like a champ. The other one will not even take a format. It
appears to have some serious I/O errors even though the self-test says
OK. What are the possibilities of finding a mechanism to replace the
busted one in the drive/powersupply unit? Do I need to find a 40 meg, or
could I upgrade to an 80 or higher? I'm assuming it is an IDE drive,
correct? I've heard of people replacing the mechanism with a SCSI drive
and then hooking it up to a SCSI card. Are there any instructions out
there on how to do that? Or, is there anybody that is good at repairing
these things?
TIA, Greg
