| FWB HDT |
Posted by: bhuntsman on 2016-05-06 16:50:58 Hi there!
I'm looking into one of those CF PowerMonster II's, and had a few questions about the formatting tools:
1. Does anyone here know the last version of FWB HDT that supports 68k Macs?
2. Does anyone know where one could obtain the last version that supports a 68k Mac? eBay?
I know there are other formatters out there... just inquiring about FWB's at this time...
Many thanks!

In recent days, I've switched to Anubis Utilities. I like it because its HDD firmware seems to play more nicely with existing Apple tools than either LIDO or HDT. For example, I couldn't get the patched HDSC Setup to format a drive after it had been formatted using LIDO, but worked just fine when formatted using Anubis Utilities. I haven't experimented too much with HDT.
