IDE Drive Died - Can Anyone Recommend Replacement?
Posted: Wed Jan 23, 2013 11:50 amSo I bumped/nudged/looked at my E5000Ultra funny and the 40GB IDE has stopped working that has been in it since purchase. INot too big a drama, just a few easily re-sampled sounds stored on there. So I chucked in a 500GB IDE drive I had and that didn't boot up in there either. Maybe it's too much? I'm getting 12V across the Positive and each of the 2 grounds and 6.80-ish across the positive and VCC.
Looking on threads here most have gone to 2.5 - but the threads are a couple of years old - then again maybe much hasn't changed in IDE world from then - what would be an acceptable maximum capacity? Would be keen to try this USB mod further down the line but just a replacement IDE would do for now.
Cheers,
Paul.
