#29944 - 08/19/07 05:52 AM AJ? Disk change - SD1 plus

Hello,

I'm a musician and player of a SD1+ (Ketron).
Now, I changed the hard disk because I didn't get access to the original old one any more.
So I put in a Hitachi 40GB 2,5'' disk instead and turn on the keyboard. The keyboard regognize the new disk and I get a message that the disk is not formatted (of course!) and then the keyboard do a surface control. After that (100%) the keyboard wants to format it but after a few seconds it shows "I/O Error" and switchs to the main-window.
So, what do I have to do to get the new disk working?
(I hope I'll get 40GB working?).

Many thanks for your help!!

40GB is too large for the SD1. Max (with EPROM Disk Controller 5.6 or higher) is 20GB. Recommended with EPROM ver. 5.0 - 5.5 is 10GB.
Thanks,
AJ
