alan,
I have a CompuAdd 12 Mhz 286 clone, with a Seagate ST251-1 and a Seagate
ST296N. The 251-1 was connected to a Western Digital cntrlr (model number
unknown), the 296N was connected to a ST01 host adapter. Disk Manager
software, provided with both disks, handled everything just fine. I had two
floppies connected to the WD cntrlr.
Whether both the WD cntrlr and the ST02 host adapter can be used to control
floppies at the same time, I do not know.
BTW, when the 296N was formatted, Disk manager split the partitions up
between the two drives. C: and E: were on the 251-1, while D:, F:, and G:
were on the 296N. But everything worked just fine.
Hope this helps.
Brad
