PerStor #PS180-16FN RLL Hard Disk Controller and Windows 3.0 (68130)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows 3.0
- Microsoft Windows 3.0a
This article was previously published under Q68130 SUMMARY
PerStor Systems Inc. manufactures a RLL hard disk controller (model
#PS180-16FN) that increases the capacity of normal hard drives by up
to 100 percent. It does this by formatting the drive with 31 sectors
per track, as opposed to the normal 17 sectors per track.
According to PerStor Systems, when you run Windows 3.0 in the 386
enhanced mode, the [386Enh] section of the SYSTEM.INI file may need
to be modified to include:
virtualhdirq=off
Factory settings load the card's BIOS at C800. This can be changed to
D800 by removing the jumper that connects pins 9 and 10 on jumper 1 of
the PerStor controller board. These are the only addresses that you
can select.
