5GB -> 8GB Colorado upgrade reports?

[BR730828]

Can anyone tell me how succesfull they were upgrading the 5 GB Colorado drive. I am specially interested in reports on the external (parallel port) version.

Does it work well?

in a word, yes... it is a simple matter of changing the firmware

The 5 gig worked fine but if you have the win 95 version it will not work with win98 as far as upgrading to a 8 gig I really do not know. Now for the reason I am replying to you other than to let you know the back up system you have or are going to buy is a little outdated but it has saved my butt many times.

You can help me if you would. I have a 5 gig travan (external) colorado back up system and I do not have a the program to run it since I upgraded to win 98se. Is it possible for me to be able to get a copy of the program from you? I do not know whre or how we can work it out but I will try if you are willing to help me. The program I need is colorado back up 2

But you still must get 8 gig tapes correct?
you can't use your 5 gig tapes?
