Thread:	My Adventure with the Seagate 5 GB ST1 Drive (FW: 3.08)
TrackBack URL: *
Excerpt:	Four Seagate 5 GB ST1 Microdrives arrived at my door a few days ago. I had ordered them off eBay, hoping to use them for several potential purposes: 1) primary notebook drives; 2) digital camera storage; and 3) portable storage. I had several run-ins with Microdrives before. The first one was a IBM 1 GB Microdrive (you can read about this drive on my Camera Hacker web site; see "Related Links" below) that came with my Canon EOS D30 Digital Camera. It worked beautifully to today. Later, I gotten a Rio Carbon MP3 player. I disassembled this player, as documented in my "Hacking Digital Cameras" book, where I found the Seagate 5 GB ST1 Drive. But this drive had always given me trouble outside the Rio Carbon. This time, I am determined to get it to work with at least one of my goals. The notebook CF adapters that I purchased for this purpose is still in transit. The ST1 Microdrives has already arrived. The following are information on the back of one Microdrive: SN: 3ME36FYA P/N: 9AF212-220 Model: ST650211CF Date: 05304 +5V FW: 3.08
