Callaghan) Organization: University of Maryland at College Park Lines: 19 I have a 660meg Maxtor full height drive that has been used in the past successfully with my Mac II. What I'm wondering is this: What do I have to go through to get it in, and running on my Cube as the main, boot drive? I called NeXT, and was promptly told that it probably is not possible, since the drive was used on a Mac!? I have the 50pin ribbon cable. Now what? Can I just run build disk and be done with it? Or is there something else? MikeC -- ___________________________________________________ Michael D. Callaghan,MDC Designs, University of Merryland mikec@wam.umd.edu
