- We are the not-so proud owners of an older HP9133H disk drive. This
- is a type of drive with a built in 3.5 in. floppy drive and a 20M
- hard drive, although other models in the 9133 series had larger or
- smaller hard drives. The problem is as follows: there are two
- banks of dip switches on the back of the drive unit, one bank for
- setting the address and one for setting the configuration (which I
- believe means how many volumes, bytes per sector, etc). We do not
- own the hardware manual for this drive unit and hence are unable to
- set either switch bank with any assurances as to what we are doing.
-
- Anyone with information regarding these switches would earn our
- undying gratitude for helping determine how to set up our drive.
- thanks in advance.
