IBM HDD DMVS, 09M, SCA, 80-pin hard disk, ready for Amiga!

Ready for Amiga! (PnP)

A customer opinion (PLEASE READ ALL......IMPORTANT INFORMATION!):

"ONLY FOR A590 2MB ROMs VERSION 6.6, BETTER ROMs 7.0 (faster and safer) + KICK START 3.1.4 +
FLOPPY, GUARANTEED.....FOR A590 ONLY.

Because some other controller manufacturers (MultiEvolution, Evo500) have problems with the SCA signal.
Note: 2091 is said to be the same build but could not be tested......NO WARRANTY.
THEREFORE GUARANTEED ONLY FOR A590.

GIANT !!!!
8680 MB (Approx.) FOR AMIGA 500/+ WITH A590 2mb CONTROLLER SET UP WITH 2 PARTITIONS ALL BOOTABLE.
One ADF= 900 kb 1000 ADFs 900mb, so endless space... for gambling, and much more.
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------
1x approx. 560 mb name HD0 for testing programs and games.
1x approx. 8 GB (rest) name HD1 to finish installing all programs tested for function, and
Games (ADFs etc.), useful as a backup since everything has been checked beforehand.
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------------

1) Optimal system for 8.6 GB.....Amiga 500/+ 1mb Ram (Chip+Fast or 1 mb chip or even 2 mb chip).
A590 2mb Ram Roms Version 7.0 (6.6 alternative) Kick Start 3.1.4 + Floppy Disks + Fan (40/40/10
3000rpm to 5000rpm 3pin) original A590 fan needs to be replaced, it is too high (25mm), because
Adapter, and Low Air Performance.

2) Minimum system to maximum 4GB total..... Amiga 500/+ 1mb Ram .
A590 1mb Ram Roms 6.6 Kick Start 3.1 + Floppy Disks + Fan (40/40/10 3000rpm to 5000rpm 3pin)
original A590 fan needs to be replaced, it is too high (25mm) due to adapter, and lower
air performance.
ATTENTION with OS 3.1 over the 4GB limit only with complex patches that do not always work.

3) This hard disk was equipped with the SCSI controller AHA-2940UW/B IBM-6, can be ordered here ID 9075,
First checked for blocks and sectors, then formatted and again a factory under Windows
new formatting + a surface analysis, all ERROR FREE (duration over. 2 HOURS).

4) THIS DISK WAS SET UP WITHOUT PATCHES AND ALL PARTITIONS TESTED, OVER 4GB
LIMIT UNTIL YOU WERE FULL WITH NO DATA LOSS WITH OS 3.1.4 ROMs + DISKS, A590 + ROMs 7.0 .

SINCE THE HARD DISK WAS SET UP WITH AMIGA OS (WITHOUT SYSTEM, FILES, JUST FORMATTED)....
BUYER AGREES TO LEGALLY OWN, PURCHASE, OR USE OTHER SYSTEMS.
-------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------

SCSI adapter SCA to 50 pin is available on request, make sure that the cable is not connected properly.

"

1) ATTENTION NO LOW LEVEL FORMAT ON THE AMIGA, THE HARD DISK WILL BE DAMAGED IN THE EVENT OF A CANCELATION.
-------------------------------------------------- -----------------------------------------------------
2) QUIK FORMAT ONLY, NO NEED FORMATTING ANYMORE.
-------------------------------------------------- --
3) I once formatted a 2 GB hard drive on the A590 with LOW LEVEL, there were over 9 HOURS.

4) THIS DISK WAS SET UP WITHOUT PATCHES AND ALL PARTITIONS TESTED, OVER 4GB
LIMIT UNTIL YOU WERE FULL WITH NO DATA LOSS WITH OS 3.1.4 ROMs + DISKS, A590 + ROMs 7.0 .

5) Register hard drive in HDToolBox from CHANGED to NOT CHANGED, just SAVE CHANGES TO DRIVE, done.

6) Some programs like Directory Opus 4.12 show an incorrect number of MB (for more than 4 GB partitions) and
can lead to data loss, also Disk Salve, Reorg and Co. We recommend Dos Control 6.0m, free
for download, (mengelke.de/amiga/doscontrol) needs little RAM and is almost (better) like DirectoryOpus.
In EARLY you can also only start from HD0/or/HD1 if you need less RAM.

7) With other partitioning of the hard disk or similar to 99.9% you need ....
QUIK FORMAT ONLY, NO MORE FORMATTING NECESSARY.

8) But be careful, even under OS 3.1.4 the A590 is limited to 4 GB (only with a new partitioning).
Under OS 3.1 you can create multiple partitions of 4GB but...partition 2 overwrites partition 1,
without patches, only a maximum of 4GB TOTAL. Or with complex patches that don't always work.

9) It can happen that after a corrupt file, you have to restart, the process can take a long time,
the hard disk makes a test loop of approx. up to 20 minutes (because of its size, 8.6gb), on the controller
Light to recognize that works, then delete faulty file done, point 16 reading.

10) With the SCA adapter, my Amiga has been running with the same hard drive for over 1 1/2 years without termination
Error free..... BUT NO GUARANTEE IT IS, ALL AT YOUR OWN RISK, USE BACKUPS....
SCA adapter ensure voltage-free connection.

11) HARD DISK JUMPER Set to: DIS F/W NEG + FORCE SE MODE as supplied. Boot Device Address
      Selector (Lun 0-1-2...6), only on adapter.
12) A590, on the back of the controller, set dip switches 1+2 to ON (up) and inside, set the jumper to SCSI.
13) Never store the hard disk in a basement or attic, it is poison for the electronics and also for the storage
     Lubrication (humidity + cold) also for A590, and all other Amigas too, they are too valuable....
     
14) Note: Partition HD0 was created in HDToolbox with 512 block size and HD1 with 2048 block size, because of the size of the
     Partition and dammit, also a quick start guaranteed (even with reading and writing), that's why
     100 MB in HD0 is not the same as 100 MB in HD1, but something more, which is tolerable due to the 8 GB.
     HD1 (8 GB) cannot be formatted with a 512 block size, the minimum here is 1024.
15) ATTENTION !!! ONLY IN HD0 (560mb) you can also install WB 2.1 or WB 3.0/3.1 UNDER ROMs KS.3.1.4,
     BUT NOT IN HD1 (8gb).... TOTAL DATA LOSS.
16) After OS.System Install in HD0 and HD1 a backup with DirectoryOpus/ Dos Control 6.0m is recommended,
     simply "MybackupHD0/ in HD1" and copy all files + information into it if necessary, only copy back.
17) A fan 40/40/10 3pin, Min.3000rpm to 5000rpm is required, original A590 fan needs to be replaced
     be, it is too high (25mm), because of adapter, and low air performance.
     A fan is also required in Tower !!!, Desktop Amigas, and other SCSI controllers.
18) Fantastic wehre Kick Start switch 1.3/3.1.4 + Gotek drive + DF0/DF1 switch, Scandoubler, 15/17
     Monitor...+ + + More at... amiga-shop.net and amigastore.eu
 
                  Retro Amiga.... only with hard drive.... have fun gambling.
     ADAPTER
     LED, SYN, DLY, MTR, ID3, ID2, ID1, ID0?
     LED is clear, you can connect an activity LED. Makes
     you don't usually.
     With SYN you can have several (identical) disks in the speed
     synchronize.
19) With DLY the disk starts delayed, with the delay time
     depends on the SCSI ID. This is to reduce the inrush current
     be done by all disks of a large system one after the other
     boot up. SCSI-ID 0/1 + DLY protects A590 power supply.
     With MTR, the disk motor doesn't start by itself, it does
     waits for a START STOP UNIT command from the host."
