Hello, this is my first post 😀
I currently have a 486DX2 booting pure DOS 6.22 with an old HDD. It's so noisy that its getting me crazy, so I wonder if I can replace it with a better one.
Tested already with the smallest hard drive I've got around: a 60GB disk and its way more silent. BIOS just shows about 8GB of its capacity and FDISK can create a 500MB primary partition using 100% of the space.
There is no way I can create a second partition (which is weird).
Already formatted this 500MB partition and wrote some data to it without any issues but I would like to have more capacity available.
Maybe it will need a better hard drive controller or give CF cards a chance. Could you please give me your advice?
Don't really mind in spending some bucks on this machine as I really love it!
Thanks in advance
