This is my first time at posting an article on a newsgroup, so please bear with me. I am thinking of getting a hard drive, and was very interested in the report of the Powerdrive from Hard Drives International. One question, though: I am not all that familiar with hard drives, so can someone please tell me why you have to have the SCSI card in slot 5 to be able to access more than two partitions? Is this true for any operating system? (Prodos 8,16 GS/OS) Any help in these matters will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
