     I have a Xebec controller card that I am currently using
with a 10 meg hard drive.  I have purchased a Kalok 20 meg
hard drive and have plugged it in.  Both drives work but
I can only format 10 meg on my 20 meg drive.  The
controller card has some dip switches on it.  I have no
documentation.  Does anyone know how to set this up or know
where I can get information on this card.

It is possible that this card will only control up to a ten
meg hard drive.  Does any one have a controller card that
will do the job for me.  I can get a new card for about
$50.00.  I would like an inexpensive hard controller if
anyone has one.  I have an old Columbia xt clone and I am
trying to connect my existing 10 meg and new 20 meg hard
drives to it.

Please send E-mail.

Thank you for your help.
