Problem upgrading SVR2000 with two WD3200AAJB drives

[lloydjs2000]

I purchased a PTVupgrade Universal Upgrade CD version 10. The CD has mfstools 2.0. I want to upgrade the existing hardrive in my SVR2000 with two WD3200AAJB drives (320 GB each).

I restored the image to one of the WD3200AAJB drives successfully. Then used mfstools "add" to add the second WD3200AAJB drive. After adding the second drive, mfstools reported over 700 hours (I forget the exact number), so I figured the upgrade was successful.

However, when I put the new drives in the SVR2000 and power up, it is stuck on "Your Recorder is starting up, Please wait a moment." This message stayed like this for 30 minutes so I figured it wasn't working.

My original drive works fine so I know there is no problem with the SVR200 hardware (cables, power supply, etc.). And I doubled checked the jumper settings on the WD3200AAJB drives. My only thought is that for some reason the WD3200AAJB isn't compatible with SVR2000. Is anyone using WD3200AAJB drives with an SVR2000?

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you & happy holidays,
Lloyd

HI, I am new here too.

What do you mean, you are "here too"? Can you provide details?

I'm still searching for large drive options with my SVR2000. I am currently chatting on the side with another user who has an SVR2000. I'll post more details at the end of the week.
