Summary: I'm beginning to hate IBM. Keywords: PS/2, hard-drive, pain, suffering Message-ID: <74466@brunix.UUCP> Date: 3 May 91 23:37:02 GMT References: <73687@brunix.UUCP> Sender: news@brunix.UUCP Reply-To: gt1096b@prism.gatech.edu (Mark Curry) Organization: Georgia Institute of Technology Lines: 16 I would like to put a hard drive into my IBM PS/2 model 30/286. The sales people at GaTech patiently explain to me that it is impossible to do anything but sink $500 into an IBM 20 meg hard drive. I do *not* believe them, though I wouldn't put it past IBM at this point. Has anyone put a non-IBM hard drive into their PS/2 30/286 and haa any luck, without spending over $500? Thanks, Mark Curry (Virtually any suggestions welcome.) REPLY TO gt1096b@prism.gatech.edu OR POST, please do *not* reply to this sender (GaTech is fascist about network posting.)
