Hello
I've connected a second harddisk to my Xt, a Miniscribe 8425.
I use both HD's as 30 MB disks. The miniscribe seems to be failing,
geerating more and more bad sectors. Since I don't have a manual of it
(i bought it at an exhibition) I don't know where the terminating resistor
pack is, so I haven't removed that.
Can soemone tell me where the TRP is located, how I remove it, an if
this is neccesary ? Is it likely that it is generating my problems ?

Greetings, Rob
