[rescue] Tadpole Sparcbook - HDD Options

Tue Apr 27 07:47:27 CDT 2021

Hi Folks

So the tadpole arrived but when powered on it would not detect the disk on the
SCSI bus (probe-scsi empty).
Took the drive caddy apart and found a Hitachi DK226A-21 insideb&.a quick
google tells me thats an IDE drive in a 1.2G caddy so no IDE to SCSI bridge
thereb&.so now I know why it wouldnbt work.

I am therefore now looking for a 2.5b
 SCSI HDD or some alternate solution.

Anyone have any ideas/suggestions/drives lurking in the bottom of a draw?

Thanks in advance
