There are different jumper settings on the two drives. You should compare them and replace the ones from the working lower one by the settings of the defective upper one before switching them. Also you'll have to remove the terminator resistor pack of the upper drive drive and plug it into the lower drive before switching the interface cables. Typical jumper differences are the DS (drive select), which should be DS0 or DS1 for the upper drive and DS 1 or DS2 for the lower drive (numbering starts either with 0 or 1, check the prints on the drive) Also there might be a difference with the MM/SM jumpers. ///E-Synthesist --- In emulatorII-list@yahoogroups.com, "Martin Dubka" <mdubka@...> wrote: > > Okay, my upper floppy drive is getting a bit temperamental so my plan is to remove it and > place the lower one in it's place, then fill the lower bay with a route66 3.5" drive. > Would this be possible?
