Upgrading of Hard Disk Drives in XEN-LS Machines

The maximum size of hard disk permissible in this machine is 240MB using the Quantum LP240AT that is set as a type 22.

The latest BIOS to support the above drive is 3.10.20.

There is a BIOS version 3.10.21i that is in circulation. This is an internal Apricot release only and has the Quantum LPS range of drives added. It is not advisable to use this unless the correct drives are used. The Quantum Maverick or Lightning drives and any other drives not listed are not supported.

If difficulties are experienced then it is recommended to downgrade to the last Official Version, that is 3.10.20.

If Version 3.10.21i is fitted as part of a hard disk upgrade, the customer should be made aware that this is an Apricot internal test release, which may have errors that are not known to the Technical Support Department.

An IDE Controller with its own on board BIOS can be fitted providing the on-board hard disk controller is disabled in setup.
