Message-ID: <27116.2752eced@kuhub.cc.ukans.edu> Date: 28 Nov 90 04:47:09 GMT Organization: Steve Huff, University of Kansas, Lawrence Lines: 14 Could somebody please explain IDE, RLL, SCSI, and ESDI to me? I looked at faq.txt but it wasn't technical enough. Also... why does a SCSI drive generally cost less than the others? Any reason IBM is evaluating SCSI drives? Are they prefereed? Why? Thanks for the help. E-mail replies preferred.
