SATA PCI cards?
|
| |
Seems my main hard drive has ran out of warranty and is showing a lot of relocated sectors. I'd like to replace it with a SATA drive. My computer is old and would need a SATA card. What is the status of addon cards? Can I expect to buy as card and it will work? I have the last DANI driver installed... more »

JFS access from XP
|
| |
Is there a way to access a JFS partition from XP? I have a large number of files, totalling ~900 GB that I need to copy temporarily to an NTFS partition. I tried NDFS but it is abysmally slow. Are there any other options?

USB keys - eCS/OS/2 and Windows XP
|
| |
Hi, I've been trying to use a USB key for saving important files that need to be on several computers. The key started out working on both the eCS and the XP system, but after a while in the XP system it is no longer recognized by the eCS one. I'm not sure, but it may have started to fail on the eCS one after I wrote a file from 123 on the XP... more »

DaniS506: boot from >512MB; removable eSATA
|
| |
I see that Dani's docs do not mention any restriction of boot drive size. Do I read it right that with Dani's S506 driver, I can boot from 2TB disks (I just got a PATA<-->SATA adapter for $4, so suddently became very interested ;-)? Thanks, Ilya P.S. BTW, are eSATA drives removable with Dani's driver? I see that... more »

IBM Docking Station II (model 2877) questions
|
| |
Hello: I asked this question on the eCS Technical list so decided to ask it here. Is there any sort of an IDE controller built into the IBM Docking Station II (model 2877)? I ask this because I am under the impression that IDE_0 and IDE_1 (E)IDE Controllers only handle one drive each since, although... more »

Adaptec 29160 further question
|
| |
Yes, some time ago I had help on the Adaptec 29160 SCSI controller card here which produced pointers to a couple of comments, including some on the eCs site of which several had bad reports on it and one had reasonable service. I suddenly realized that this controller, of which I have two such cards and... more »

AMD 780G/SB700 Southbridge controller with Danis506.add
|
| |
I'm considering attempting to build one more native OS/2 system using the ASUS M4A78 Pro motherboard which has the AMD 780G chipset on it which includes an integrated ATI 3200 graphics chipset and the SB700 southbridge. I'm assuming that the ATI 3200 gear will not work with the last SNAP 3.1.8 driver but I am still not sure if the last Danis506.add... more »

SATA controller, 1.5 - 3.0 Gbps
|
| |
I have a Silicon Image SiI 3112 SATALink Controller to which is attached a Seagate Barracuda ST3160023AS 7200.7 SATA HD and a Plextor PX-708A DVD/CD drive. Since 1 TB drives are so inexpensive I'm thinking of upgrading the HD (specifically the SAMSUNG Spinpoint F1 HD102UJ 1TB which NewEgg has for $75). However, the one concern I have is that the... more »
