Hi all.

I want to install a second harddisk in my 24 channel Harddiskrecorder Fostex D2424LV. I don't want to buy the original caddy, because i need 3 of these caddys (for PCs and fostex). (they are not really cheap) :-(
I bought standard PC caddys. I'd read that this will work.

I'd done the following:
-connected the second disk with an IDE cable to the harddisk
-check both: master or primary settings
-formatted the harddisk with FAT16
-set the jumper at the harddisk to limitation of 2Gigabytes

But in the display appears "connector error!".
When i put the second IDE Harddisk in the first IDE connector it works, but not as a second device :-(

Maybe somone could help me with this problem, or give some tips?

Kind regards,
Frank Röllen.

Frank,

The only member here that may be able to assist, hasn't been around lately.

I would suggest you look at Fostex's own forum, (I think it may be on the Fostex USA website), and ask the question there.

The D160, which I own, only has one H/drive bay, so I too use the standard PC caddies without any problems.

Good Luck.

:cool:
