Title: Did I Get Ripped Off? (hitachi Microdrive)
Post by: lindenle on December 08, 2005, 08:04:54 pm

I just bought a Hitachi 4GB Microdrive with:

model-number: HMS360604D5CF00
P/N: 0A40264
bar code: B4SAM9EG 54A

and when i put it into my c860 I get an anonymous memory message. fdisk etc etc wont do anything. Is there a way to make this work or did I get ripped off .

Thanks for any information.

Ok here is the update I have tried the microdrive in a Nikon D70 which is specifically listed as compatible on Hitachi's web site. t did not work so I called Hitachi and it turns out the drive is still under warraty so i asked for an RMA....perhaps I will end up with a working drive after all of this.
