SCSI bus is supposed to be a standard but the number of articles in comp.periphs.scsi tells the contrary !!! DG's disks and I imagine, all major company add-ons (SUN, ...) are expensive. Do you know of hard disk, magneto-optical disk and exabyte that have been successfully plugged to an AViiON ? What about software problems ? Do you have the description (type, constructor, ...) of DG 1Gb disk so that I find a similar one ? Thanks in advance, fred. ___________________________________________________________________________ DESPOIX Frederic, despoix@imag.fr LGI-DU, B.P. 53x despoix@imag 38041 GRENOBLE cedex, FRANCE uunet.uu.net!imag!despoix Tel : (33)76.51.44.81 /------------------------------ Fax : (33)76.44.66.75 | NB : Usual disclaimer applies
