Re: Q: Apple High & RamFast SCSI cards...

How can I tell if it's in the 1:1 format, or whatever you mean.
I have the Q100 HD from Quality Computers. All 4 partitions are in ProDos
format, I have only re-formatted 3 of the 4 partitions due to HD crashes
(formatted with the finder), the other partition, which is the boot one,
is in the same condition as i got it.
