Hello everyone
We have a Radiance Plus on an OS/2 PC. We transfer files using SCSI
Zip or Jazz discs. Love the Zip but the Jazz discs are becoming a
real pain and the zips are just not big enough.

So I am trying an Orb drive.  There are no drivers for OS/2 so the
computer could not recognise the PC disc. However by formatting the
disc to OS/2 the disc was seen and I was very impressed at how fast
the data transfered (compared with jazz). Now the problem is to get
the Mac to see the disc.

OS/2 formats a disk to HPFS. The  Mac operating system does not have  the
ability to deal with that particular format.

There is another way to format a disc for OS/2 but I can't remember
how to do it. Can anyone help?
Many  thanks
Elaine
