Hi, I saw some times ago somebody asking for info about SCSI disks on
Apollo. I didn't see any follow-up.
I'm interested on that and wondering whether SCSI disk can only be
plugged on dn2500 or if they can laso be used on dn3500/4500 with the
WD7000 controller.

Of course we are not interested in writing our own driver, we'd like
to use DomainOS drivers directly. 
Is that possible ? otherwise, is there any PD SCSI disk driver available ?
This is not at all clear. We are running 10.2 and the release notes
mention changes to invol to support SCSI disks, unfortunately without
specifying to which machines/controllers these apply, nor any other
detail. Invol and Salvol man pages contain no reference to SCSI.

Thanks in advance,
