The most prominent features of HDDRIVER and HDDRUTIL

• Supports all Ataris, the Milan, the CT060, the Suska-III-C board, MagiCMac and MagicPC as well as Aranym. For MagiCMac and MagicPC the SCSI Driver by Steffen Engel is required. Note: Under MagiCMac and MagiCPC only install SCSIDRV, but not CBHD.
• Driver for Atari SH/Megafile, SCSI, IDE and ATAPI drives.
• Works with all kinds of hard disk drives and removable media drives (MOD, PD, DVD-RAM, SyQuest, Nomai, ZIP, JAZ, LS-120, CF and SD adapters, ...).
• Support for drives up to 2048 GByte (2 TByte). SCSI drives with a capacity > 1 GByte connected to an Atari ST or ST^E require an ICD compatible SCSI host adapter, e. g. the LINK97.
• Support for 2 IDE ports (4 IDE/ATAPI devices) with the Hades and the Milan.
• Special functions (Auto-Sleep, Auto-Park, password protection) for ZIP and JAZ drives.
• Automatic and secure recognition of media changes.
• Support for DOS/Windows compatible media guarantees an easy data exchange between TOS, DOS/Windows, Mac OS X and Linux.
• DOS/Windows compatible partitioning (including FAT32) with the Atari.
• VFAT or FAT32 partitions (long filenames, virtually unlimited partition size) with MagiC or MiNT.
• With MiNT access to Linux partitions, resulting in an easy data exchange between TOS and Linux.
• With MagiC or MiNT 23 partitions or more at the same time.
• Non-blocking SCSI and ACSI data transfers with MagiC. Applications keep on running in the background while data are being transferred.
• Reconstruction of partitions in case the root sector was corrupted.
• Compatible with the XHDI standard 1.30, with support for all optional functions.
• Compatible with the SCSI Driver standard 1.01 for accessing SCSI, IDE and ATAPI peripherals (CD/DVD-ROM, CD/DVD burners, scanner, streamer etc.) with appropriate third-party drivers, including SCSI target interface.
• Write protection for particular partitions and for boot and root sectors.
• SCSI initiator identification and bus arbitration ensures highest compatibility with the SCSI standard.
• Error statistics
• Boots from any partition
• Arbitrary device order
• Parameters of SCSI and ATAPI devices can be changed, e. g. the cache settings.
• The HDDRIVER package includes several useful tools.
• All programs are bilingual (German and English).

Note: Afterburner, Hades and SatanDisk/UltraSatan are not officially supported, but HDDRIVER has been tested successfully with them. Those using this hardware should try the demo version first.
