Re: Harddrive for 760CD

"Can I use (With the add-on gadget) the 755 harddrive (50 and the 810) in the
760CD ? They are cheap not like the 760 harddrives.
Anyone knows good place to buy them?"

The 755 harddrives are just slightly too big for the 760CD. I assume by
the "add on gadget" you mean the holder for the second hard drive.

Here too the 755 drives are too large. HOWEVER, if you are willing to
attack the plastic gizmo with a chisel etc, you can hollow it out so
that the 755 drives fit fine, and they seem to work with no difficulty.
That's what I did.

However, I found the whole thing of limited use, because the drive letters
in OS/2 switch depending on whether or not you have the extra hard drive
installed, which is a real nuisance since I wanted to use it for backup.
