HELP...! Summary: Using SCSI drives... Keywords: SCSI MFM controller card Message-ID: <1990Jun5.024609.15000@agate.berkeley.edu> Date: 5 Jun 90 02:46:09 GMT Sender: usenet@agate.berkeley.edu (USENET Administrator;;;;ZU44) Reply-To: c60a-1ed@e260-3f (Shang-Tse Chuang) Organization: University of California, Berkeley Lines: 16 I have a dilemma here, and need help... Someone, in a previous posting, said that it may be possible to use SCSI drives with MFM? I was wondering if this is possible... I have a 71MB full-height MFM drive installed on a 2FD/2HD controller card... I have a half-height free, in which I would like to install a removable media drive (25 ms, using 40MB cartridges), since I find 71 megs very cramped... The problem lies in that this removable media drive is a SCSI interface... Now, how would I go about using this, while still keeping my HD? If there is no inexpensive solution, is there a removable media (half-height) that I can use with my MFM controller??? I don't mind access time too much, as long as it's not too slow (< 40ms preferred) anything between 20-40 MB cartridges are fine... thanks for any/all help...
