What is the story regarding 6 megabyte cards?
It is possible to use a 6 megabyte SRAM PC Card with dataPAC. However, this is a card size that was not anticipated so there are a couple problems. Once the 6 megabyte card has been formatted, it will work properly in the dataPAC. But the problem is getting the proper format on the 6 megabyte card. None of the dataPAC operating system releases up to and including the current releases (i.e.: dataPAC 1500 V4, dataPAC 1250 V4, and dataPAC 1000 V3) will correctly format a 6 megabyte card. These software releases will put a 4 megabyte format on the 6 megabyte card. The card will function properly but there will only be 4 megabytes of disk space available. The problem is that the dataPAC formatting utility only tests for certain card sizes. Those sizes are 256 KB, 512 KB, 1 MB, 2 MB, 4 MB, 8 MB, 16 MB, 32 MB, and 64 MB. Since the dataPAC formatting utility does not specifically test for a 6 megabyte card size, it thinks the card is only 4 megabytes. Normally you could get around this problem
