Speaking of differential SCSI, I recently acquired two Seagate Barracuda 4GB wide differential drives (ST15150WD). Unfortunately, I don't have access to a wide differential controller, and I really don't want to shell out the cash for a differential controller. Is there any way to run such a drive on a single-ended narrow SCSI-II bus? Anyone know what these sell for new in case I need to get rid of them? -- The Internet is full. | InterNIC: BS56 Go away. | mailto:bmk@fta.com
