Re: Atari Megafile PSU question
Thanks so much Tom, You've been a massive help as well as everyone in this thread.
I'll update when i get time to test the drive with the ST.
Do you have a driver the megafile uses to communicate? programs to format and test it with?
Re: Atari Megafile PSU question
AHDI was the official Atari offering, have a look here;

No bells and whistles but for an MFM drive, plenty good.
ICD and Hddriver are other options.

Re: Atari Megafile PSU question
Hi everyone. I have everything set up and all powers on.
But i have an issue. If the megafile is turned on the floppy wont work and errors with "insert disk" and doesnt read anything, but if the mega file is off, the floppy works fine. There's a red switch on the board, they are all flipped to the top.
I have a copy of the disk with all the utilities and proper drivers on it. Tried AHDI and ICD. which i cant use because the floppy dont wanna work.
My ST has 4mb of ram, so its not low on memory.
The atari sees the drive as it lists "2" when it starts
The floppy drive does not autoboot the floppy
But like i said the floppy drive stops reading anything. "insert disk" Either on A: or B:. Doesnt even read when booting.
Turn off the megafile, drive works again.
I have TOS 1.04 with the exxos adapter.
Display is through an UBE ST to VGA.
i want to get the megafile working.
There really isnt all that much i can find about what programs to use to set up the atari st hard drive with.
@Tomswork
Do you have any advice?
