I asked about SCSI drives and was going to summerise, but all questions have
also been posted to both lists. So I'll forgo that exercise.

You ( Stefan Esser ) write:
=>  Hmmm, that's surprising, since my current development system uses

This was summer 1995, and I was still running 2.0 at home.
On all systems did it work under DOS and OS/2, but not FreeBSD.

I also had problems connecting it to a SGI system, and there I'd need
to switch communication with the drive to async mode.
Sunday I upgraded to 2.1.5 on my gateway, and 2.2-SNAP CD on my personal
box, so there's plenty of toys to play with.

Also note that I have a $250 difference in the offer. The Seagate Barracuda
is the more expensive one.

Thanx for all the info sofar,
