No need to do that. I have figured out that the 2.5" drive I had is
DOA (dead on arrival), and have replaced it with an 850 MB Toshiba
drive, and that probes perfectly well.

I still have a Quamtum® Daytona¨ Go-Drive® DAY514AT 2.5" drive if there
is anyone else working on the arm26 port with a need for it. Send me
your snail mail address by private email and I will send it to you.

NOTE! This drive must then be used for arm26 development or testing.
