Hello guys,
I have now hooked up an Seagate ST-251 MFM 5.25 harddisk on a recoverd DTC 5150 X MFM controller.. I have never played with this stuff actually.. I know to hook it up.. But never been in the harddisk formatter program.
First it ask Drive No.. ( i know that it means with drive to configure) ( i only have one drive now, so i have chosen 1.)
Now it asks the interleave 2-9.. But dont know whats that.. Iam only guessing that it could be the interleave of the controller.. Because i used debug to come in the formatter program g=c800:5 (so i guess 5 would be the interleave..) I like to know whats the interleave, (drive or controller) and whats the sake to change it to a different number.. Now i dont know what to choose..
~ At least it can do black and white~
