I have one of those "superfloppy", LS-120 Imation SuperDisk's I think is the
model. I had it hooked up into a system for a while, then rebuild my
system, new case and motherboard, etc. In my old system I'd had the floppy
and the superdisk on one cable, and it was working, showed up in XP as drive
A:. Now it's not working. I had a lot of trouble getting this system up
and running, it was one of those, "just wanna add a new video card" type
deals where you have to eventually upgrade mobo, case, AND RAM, to get
things working again. But the time I got done with this 3-week nightmare,
the superfloppy/CDRW combo was the last thing to go into the system, and the
floppy wasn't working so I just connected the CDRW to IDE2 and called it a
day. CDRW works fine.
I just need some advice from someone who has/had one of these. Should I
connect it as the 1st/2nd device on IDE2 or run it from the floppy connector
with a flat ribbon/twisted (regular floppy) cable?
Usually don't *need* the floppy, but it would be nice to have, just in case.
Thanks in advance.
