CC-432 AND ALLOY HARD DISKS
|
|||
|
|
|

|
|
|
|||
|
|
The purpose of this technical bulletin is to assist users
|
|||
|
|
configuring systems that contain both the AST CC-432
|
|||
|
|
communications card and an Alloy hard disk controller. Alloy
|
|||
|
|
hard disks use interrupt 2 and I/O address 300. Since this is
|
|||
|
|
the default interrupt and I/O address of the AST CC-432 card,
|
|||
|
|
either the CC-432 card or the Alloy card must be reconfigured.
|
|||
|
|
If you do change the interrupt and I/O address on the CC-432, AST
|
|||
|
|
recommends using I/O address 340-34f or 360-36f. I/O address
|
|||
|
|
320-32f conflicts with Alloy controller cards.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
This information does apply to Alloy's Quicstor hard disk. If
|
|||
|
|
you are using the Quicstor with a network or emulation product,
|
|||
|
|
some Alloy dealers recommend using the PIO mode to format the
|
|||
|
|
hard disk. Consult the Quicstor manual or call your Alloy
|
|||
|
|
distributor for more information on the PIO mode.
