Controller or Hardware Defect
Hi,
I have a Quantum "Fireball" 1.2GB HDD that went bad. I got a message regarding a problem with the "controller". I swapped the controller (same controller) from a similar HDD and I still get the same message. I am trying to recover some files on the HDD. Could a hardware fault cause a controller error message? Thanks in advance, Brad Before you type your password, credit card number, etc., be sure there is no active key logger (spyware) in your PC.

In reality, the ide controller for a ide hard drive is on the physical hard drive. MS chooses to refer to the ide controller as the I/O chip on the motherboard that passes ide data as the ide controller. At least its that way in 95, 98, 98SE, and Millenium editions of windows. -- Jonny
