Hellmuth's drive (which survived 10 hours of "ls -R > /dev/null"
on seven disks with mounting and unmounting going on) is a "Nakamichi
MBR-7" double speed drive with a 64kb buffer.  I'm using it with
pretty-darn-close to 2.1R with the aha1542c.  It is likely that
the unit you are looking at will work the same.

I don't know about this and I don't have the source on line here.
