On date 12th November 2005 my AMIGA 1200 internal hard disk has broken!
On date 16th November 2005 I am gone with my major sister to MediaWorld hopeing to find a new 2.5 inches hard disk to substitute the broken one and luckly I have find two hard disks of this kind, one of 40 Gigs and the other of 60 Gigs, both boxed equal and anonymous; after a couple of minutes of evaluation, I have choosen the one of 60 Gigs, I am gone with my sister to the cash and I have spent 129 Euros.
I have discovered at home that into the anonymous box was hidden a HITACHI TRAVELSTAR; think that the new 60 Gigs hard disk is tick a quarter compared with the old 810 Megs one!
After installing it into my AMIGA 1200 I have discovered that by its own it can see not 4 but instead 8 Gigs of the new hard disk 60 Gigs total capacity.
I have decided to create the same partitions that there were on the previous hard disk, with the difference that each is 1 Gig wide except for the last that takes all the space left, that are 2 Gigs.
The solutions to use the new hard disk whole capacity without utilize the OS 3.5 is of the installation of a third part patch that I have found on the installation diskette of the SCSI KIT of the BLIZZARD 1230 IV accellerator card of the AMIGA 1200.
The following photos are of the old 810 Megs hard disk remotion and of its substitution with the 60 Gigs one.
