Ertle) Organization: National Geophysical Data Center, Boulder, Colorado Lines: 14 Nntp-Posting-Host: ngdc2.colorado.edu As the subject line says - I am seeking advice/experiences from users of SCSI-controllers - in a Unix environment. The system this will be installed in will be (one of): 1) a 33-Mhz 386, 2) a 25-Mhz 486, or 3) a 33-Mhz 486 - possibly EISA if its a 486. The flavor of Unix will probably be Interactive 2.2 - because that's what I am running now and am used to. Our reason for going with a SCSI is to (hopefully) handle a CD-ROM-reader, 9-track tape, and read/write optical. In fact if anyone out there has experience they can relate with one of these devices and SCSI I would appreciate hearing about that as well. Thanks. - Marc Ertle NGDC
