Mac Forum / General / Hardware / January 2007Powerbase and problems with IDE hard drive
I replaced the hard drive in a Power Computing Powerbase machine with a Fujitsu MPB302AT 2.16GB hard drive The hard drive seems to be OK (I was able to format it in a Windows machine), but the Powerbase doesn't seem to recognize it at all (I tried Drive Setup, etc.) Anything I'm doing wrong?

Thanks in advance! The PowerBase only supports one device on its built-in IDE bus. Do you have more than one device connected? If the HD is the only device on the bus, make sure its jumper is set to master, not cable select. > The PowerBase only supports one device on its built-in IDE bus.

I'll put the disk back on the PC, to see if it will still operate (i.e. it hasn;t been damaged by hooking it up to the Mac somehow....) Or maybe the drive is just not compatible with the Powerbase IDE interface? (The original disk was a Seagate, I think.....) |
