Got a sysgen external 3.5 drive for it but am having difficulty installing it. Was told by a Sysgen tech that he *didn't* think it would workwith this Epson model. Are there any confirming experiences or work arounds out there amongst the micro community. If this approach to bigger capacity drives won't work, any alternative suggestions would be appreciated. I am running DOS 3.1, but can move up to 3.3 if necessary. The controller is supposed to recognize 1.2 MG disks drives as well as the 360k ones.
