Hello: I recently purchased a used IBM 810MB HD to install in my TP 360Cs. The model number is DVAA-2810, and the P/N is 85G8887. This will (hopefully) replace the Quantum Daytona 341 AT/S 340MB drive that I currently have installed. The problem that I have been seeing is that, when I install the DVAA-2810 in the caddy and boot up, I get an I9990305 error code (cannot find startup drive). At first, I thought that there may be a problem with the master/slave designation, but I tried this both with the "standard" configuration and with pin 46 (the right-most pin on the bottom of the drive) bent down so that it does not go into the connector. In both cases, the results were as above. I have also noticed that pin number 25 seems to be missing. This is not the case with the Quantum, and I just gave away the 170MB IBM drive that originally came with the machine (DHAA-2270), so I can't check on that one. By the way, I am running version 1.20 of System Program Services, which includes the fix for the 512MB drive size barrier. I am also running Windows 95, with 20MB of RAM. My questions are: - has anyone been able to get the DVAA-2810 working on a TP 360 or similar machine - if so, what is the trick - is it normal for pin 25 to be missing (I know that pin 20 is supposed to be missing) Any help would be greatly appreciated.
