Sata hdd issues, jp 103-5 adapter - shefben - 08.06.2022 22:43 I recently got my dreamcast working with a large 3.5" 500gb hard drive. I wanted to switch to an (seagate) sata 2.5" 500gb hard drive so i bought a j20330 adaptor (I have the top adaptor, not the bottom longer one) The dreamcast will not boot from IDE, it freezes at loading retrodream from /ide/ But it does work with the sd card. With the sd card I can access the list of games and movies on my sata hard drive, but when I go to launch the games it freezes on executing game, after mounting fat partition. I tried using a 10k resistor between 3.3v and pin 1, I also tried a 400pf cap between pin 1 and 2 on my adaptor. Neither of those solutions made any difference. I tried a different brand hard drive (toshiba) and it didnt fix the issue either. Also: I am using GD-IDE, which is soldered to a gdrom pcb, without the lens or motor Can someone please help me? RE: Sata hdd issues, jp 103-5 adapter - fafadou - 10.06.2022 12:58 do you have try an other brand than seagate ? for me seagate is not good for this mod. RE: Sata hdd issues, jp 103-5 adapter - shefben - 10.06.2022 18:10 I tried a toshiba 500gb sata hd also, same results. I also bought a startech ide-sata adapter and the jm020330 adapter, neither of them worked. they freeze at mounting filesystem, if I use an sd card it freezes at the point where it says fatfs 2500mb/3100mb The only adapter that seems to get furthest is the 103-5 adapter. It freezes at loading ds_core.bin from /ide/. or if I use an sd card, it will freese when trying to mount the game. RE: Sata hdd issues, jp 103-5 adapter - shefben - 12.07.2022 02:04 fun fact: I figured out that all my issues came down to doing a bad job soldering. I used the gd-ide pcb, i guess i either didnt use enough solder on some of the vias. After reheating all the solder points everything worked now all the adapters work (startek, jp 103, a few others) RE: Sata hdd issues, jp 103-5 adapter - fafadou - 12.07.2022 02:59 Good I'm happy for you
