PowerQuest's "Drive Image 2002" works perfect, and the second drive is bootable. Just make sure to NOT let the program make either hard drive "hidden" unless you plan on keeping both HD's in the system.
tpinky: If you ran at 15,000rpm, you'd get hot also! Scsi hard drive do run hotter than ide, and need good cooling. As for your benchmark I can't explain. Doesn't make any sense. Try running about 10 tasks at the same time and see which is faster in benchmark. I know than some IDE hard drives...
tpinky: You've got the right ribbon. Just put the single connector on the host card. Then the pair that's REAL close to each other are for the terminator(VERY last connector), and the second one close to the terminator is for the hard drive. Should work perfectly. If you ever buy more hard...
tpinky: Here is an example of what you need: scsi ribbon Ultra-3/160 (P/N 127-2440), and scsi terminator 68pin w/LVD female (P/N 127-1675) from www.cyberguys.com. After seeing these, do a search on the web for there are ribbons with the terminator attached/fixed to the end of the ribbon for a...
Your ribbon won't work. Most scsi hard drives have a jumper on them to supply termination power, but don't self terminate. You need a ribbon with at least three connectors. One for the host card, the second for the hard drive, and the last (end of cable) for an active or passive terminator. The...
The only reasons the hard drive can't be scanned in the scsi bios is lack of an ID# set, or termination. Make sure the scsi bios is set to "boot enabled", the bios boot ID# is "0", the hard drive ID# is "0", and the end of the scsi ribbon has an "active"...
This is because your NTLDR is on the 6.4GB Seagate drive hidden in the "root directory". Your best bet is to save all your personal data, erase the new drive and install XP from scratch in an NTFS format as the only hard drive installed in the machine-Primary/Master. It will ask you...
I hope your only adding one terminator to the end of the ribbon. Any jumpers on scsi hard drives labeled "term" only mean it can/will supply the terminator power. Each scsi chain needs ONE active terminator at the end of the ribbon only. The adaptec host card is auto self terminating...
Just for your information, Fat32 only has 512b clusters and NTFS has 4Kb clusters. Any conversion from Fat32 to NTFS (including Partition Magic) does not increase cluster size to 4Kb. They remain at 512b. Only a fresh install on NTFS partition will generate 4Kb clusters. I've maid this mistake...
