Ron, You're in luck!!! I, too, own a Micropolis 1325. It is a Type 29 drive and should be jumpered as shown: The set of six pins should have 2 and 4 jumpered. The set of two pins should have 7 and 8 jumpered. Good luck. It should work just fine. George =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= George J.
