Hi!

  I am thinking of using the ST-157N with the ST-02. Any comments about
the speed, reliability, etc? Can the combination use 1:1 interleave?
I have a friend with the above combination on a 12MHz AT and he
is getting only around 270K of transfer rate, at 1:2. What is the 
zero wait option on the ST-02? 
  I will NOT be running any intelligent multiuser OS on this 
combination, so I don't need an intelligent SCSI card. Cost is the MAJOR 
factor here.
  Any comments on this setup will be greately appreciated. Email if possible,
and I will summarize.

  Thanks,
  Kwong
