This ties into an earlier post of reconfiguring your 1000 -> 2000 model. While poking around in debug I tried the following:
Code:
Command: bios model
Model Byte currently is:
0 - 2 drive IDE: "Minnie"
==> 1 - 1 drive IDE: "Mortie"
2 - 4 drive IDE: "Laser"
3 - 12 drive IDE: "Clipper"
The default setting (under OS v3.4.803) for a 1000 is "Mortie".
Evidently, if the hardware supports it, you can bump it up to support even more drives
Just my inflation adjusted $0.02.
