I am trying to replace the 15 Meg hard disk in my Tandy 12/6000 external
disk unit.  A posting of a few weeks ago indicated that this should be
straightforward but I have encounterd a problem, namely three discrete
wires soldered to the drive electronics board and connected to the controller.
The previous posting did not mention anything like them and I am unsure
of what to do about them.

My new drive (a ST-251) will not work without them (I get "drive not ready"
messages when I try to format). Any help or information will be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
David Fox
