I have a PS/2 Model 95 XP with a P90 complex and Corvette SCSI. I've
just fitted a SCSI2SD to emulate a bunch of drives. However, it's
proving difficult figuring out what to use for drive parameters.

Most of the time emulated drives just don't show up on the SCSI bus. The access LED on the SCSI2SD flashes, but when running configuration from
the reference diskette I can only see the adapter and a CDROM drive.

If I configure a 1GB drive, set the vendor to IBM and product ID to
92F0428, the drive shows up on the SCSI bus, but with a capacity of
"????" and errors about how it can't identify the the FRU etc. I've also
tried a 4.51GB drive with product ID 76H0959, but that didn't show up on
the bus at all. I had thought that if I used drive sizes and FRUs from
the PC Server 500 HDD table it might work.

Obviously no idea what to set in SCSI2SD for the drive version and serial.

Does anyone have some known good SCSI2SD drive configurations they could share? I'd ideally like a 1GB drive and a few 4GB or bigger.
