+eebuckeye Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 I picked up a FA-ST hard drive and have been trying to figure out how to connect it. The cable attached fits into the 'Computer In' port but I can't figure out how to plug the other end into the Atari ST!?! The guy provided all the cables he said he has but I do not see any others that would work. Any suggestions please? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfollowell Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 (edited) That looks like a 19-pin male connector. There is a 19-pin female hard drive port on the back of the ST. Edited February 22, 2020 by bfollowell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+eebuckeye Posted February 22, 2020 Author Share Posted February 22, 2020 (edited) Good grief.. I must be blind.. I swear I looked at every port on the ST and it would not fit.. ugh.. Edited February 22, 2020 by eebuckeye Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfollowell Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 I'm not sure about the software though. I would think it needs some kind of drivers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+eebuckeye Posted February 22, 2020 Author Share Posted February 22, 2020 I do have the driver disks so hopefully I can get it going.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+SoulBuster Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 I have one of those FA-ST units. They are pretty cool. The have an AdSCSI adapter board in them. There is also room for a second HD, but I would add this little device to it instead SCSI to SD https://store.inertialcomputing.com/category-s/100.htm I bought the v5.0b version as it is smaller and uses micro-SDs. I can be configured with 4 drives of 1 gig each, each with their own unit number Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
