Hello, I just ordered (but don't have yet) a Toshiba 1.2GB hard drive (external) for my NeXTstation turbo. The place I ordered from is a Mac vendor and does not know about NeXTs. He said I would need drivers for the Next to drive the drive, which he can not supply. Has anyone successfully (or not?) mounted such a drive on a NeXT? If so, do I need special drivers and where do I get those from? Anything to watch out for? Any general tips/recommendations? I have never before entered into the low level interface to a hard drive, so I am very innocent here. -- Servus, Helmut (W9/DH0MAD) ______________NeXT-mail preferred________________ heller@lisboa.ks.uiuc.edu "Knowledge must be gathered and cannot be given" FAX: (217)244-6078 ZEN, one of BLAKES7 Phone: (217)244-6914 ------------------------------------------------- Helmut Heller, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Beckman Institute Theoretical Biophysics Group, Room 3143, MC 251
